Ingredients

1/2 pound ground beef

1/2 pound ground pork

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1 large egg

1/2 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup sliced mushrooms

1/2 medium onion, sliced

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups beef broth

1/2 cup sour cream

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

2. Form into 1.5-inch meatballs.

3. Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Brown the meatballs in batches until golden on all sides. Remove and set aside.

4. In the same skillet, sauté sliced onions and mushrooms until soft and golden.

5. Sprinkle in the flour and stir for 1–2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

6. Gradually pour in beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Add Dijon mustard and mix.

7. Return the meatballs to the skillet, cover, and simmer for 10–12 minutes until meatballs are fully cooked and the sauce thickens.

8. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream until smooth.

9. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Use full-fat sour cream for the smoothest sauce.

For extra flavor, deglaze the pan with a splash of white wine before adding broth.

Make the meatballs ahead and refrigerate to save time on busy nights.
