Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground chuck
  • 1 lb. ground lean pork
  • 2 eggs, beaten to a lemon yellow
  • 1 c. bread crumbs
  • 3/4 c. mashed potatoes
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 c. condensed milk
  • 1 tsp. brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. cloves
  • 1/4 tsp. ginger
  • 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp. allspice
  • 4 twists of pepper mill
  • 3 Tbsp. butter (for frying)
  • 2 c. half and half cream

Method

  • Mix very well all of the ingredients, except the butter for frying and the cream, in the order in which they are listed. Using the large end of a melon ball maker, form into tiny meat balls.
  • Saute the meat balls in the butter until they are well browned.
  • Shake the pan from side to side so that they roll and brown evenly on all sides.
  • Pour off any excess drippings which may accumulate during the frying.
  • Stir in the cream; simmer for 20 minutes, or until the sauce is thickened.
  • Serve with boiled potatoes or with broad noodles.
