GERMAN MEATBALLS
This is one of our favorite main dishes. Because we raise our own pork and beef, the meat we use is always freshly ground. For variety, these meatballs can be cooked with a sweet cream gravy or steamed with tomatoes. But we prefer them with homemade sauerkraut. -Iona Redemer, Calumet, Oklahoma

GERMAN MEATBALLS
I got this recipe from a man from Germany, he was a patient of mine that I was working with in rehabilitation. Not sure if this is truly a German recipe or his take on one. Note: He didn't suggest a sauce, but I recommend using a can of cream of mushroom soup (with 1/2 or more can of water) and 1/2 cup sour cream and then seasoning with salt, pepper and any other seasoning of choice, and then serving it over noodles or rice.

KONIGSBERGER KLOPSE (GERMAN MEATBALLS IN CREAMY CAPER SAUCE)
A classic! Authentic Königsberger Klopse are made from ground veal, beef, and pork, along with a small amount of anchovies (or sardines or herring), chopped onions, bread crumbs, eggs, and spices. The traditional creamy sauce that accompanies the dumplings are made from the broth in which the dumplings were cooked, flour, cream, white wine, lemon juice, and capers. Delicious! Serve with boiled new potatoes and my Rotkohl recipe #108449 #108449. Also makes a great appetizer! A little history: Predecessors of the Königsberger Klopse date back to the Middle Ages. However, the East Prussian name Klops (Klops = meat dumpling) didn't originate until the 18th century. Königsberger Klopse was invented in the city of Königsberg (then the capital of East Prussia; today known as Kaliningrad, Russia) around 200 years ago. My German/Polish/French grandmother was born and raised in East Prussia, about 30 kilometers from Königsberg. This recipe is my version of her delicious Königsberger Klopse, which she never wrote down but with the help of my mother I was finally able to replicate. I have many fond memories of enjoying this dish (which the women would prepare) at family gatherings, Sunday dinners, and special occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries. Still one of my top favorites!!! I hope your family enjoys, too. (Helpful Tips: These tender meatballs are braised NOT fried. If halving the meatball recipe, you will still need the full amount of stock for braising and for the gravy. The meatballs are somewhat delicate & time consuming to make; have someone help to form them into balls, it is much easier that way! For appetizers make them smaller and serve warm from the crock pot with toothpicks, buttered rolls and Potato Salad recipe #309891 #309891. Freezes well).

Steps:
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven such as Le Creuset, heat broth ingredients (stock, bay leaf, cider vinegar, white wine, peppercorns, and 2 tablespoons capers) to a simmer over medium heat.
- Meanwhile, combine meatball ingredients, mix well.
- Form meat mixture into golf-ball sized balls (note: mixture will be a bit sticky and delicate to work with, but this is normal, and the result will be a moist and tender meatball!). Roll them in flour, and carefully place into hot broth; simmer each batch for 15 minutes, but do not boil. (Tip: do not crowd meatballs, ie only simmer about 10-12 meatballs at a time). Note that the broth will thicken as you add the flour covered meatballs, which will make a nice sauce.
- Carefully remove meatballs from the hot broth with a slotted spoon, and keep them warm in a covered bowl stored in the oven while making the sauce. Discard bay leaf.
- To Make Cream Sauce:.
- To hot broth stir in the sauce ingredients and heat through, but do not boil.
- Add the cooked meatballs to the heated sauce, stir gently and warm through.
- To Serve:.
- Serve Meatballs and Cream Sauce with boiled new potatoes (salzkartoffel) or hot buttered spaetzle noodles, and German Rotkohl recipe #108449. Sprinkle with snipped fresh parsley, for garnish.
- To Serve as an Appetizer:.
- Make the meatballs smaller and serve warm from the crock pot with toothpicks, buttered rolls and potato salad recipe #309891.
- Freezes well.

GERMAN MEATBALLS (FLEISCHKUECHLE)
The German Meatball is not actually a ball - it looks more like a disk. It is one of my favorite childhood foods and I keep on making these for private dinners, big brunches, a party gift, picnicks,... you get the idea: easy to prepare, store, and take around, hot or cold, goes with almost anything. A taste of Germany - enjoy!

Steps:
- Start by soaking the dry bread with some lukewarm milk (takes around 20 min). When done, quench the milk out of the bread.
- Meanwhile, finely chop onions and sauté with some oil or butter in a pan until they are transparent. Shred the carrot and sauté with the onions until soft. Let cool.
- Add all ingredients into a bowl and mix thoroughly with your hands.
- Add spices to taste. Remember: add a little more salt than you think you should. The frying will take off some salt, so it prevents the meatballs from tasting boring.
- Now heat margarine or butter in a non-stick pan, form disks from the meat dough (approx 10 cm diameter, 2-3 cm high) and fry thoroughly from both sides.
- Serving suggestion: with mashed potatoes and baby carrots with peas.

Steps:
- Begin with the German meatballs: Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and shape into about 24 (1 1/2-inch round) meatballs. Brown the meatballs in a large skillet over medium heat, making sure to drain well as you cook the meaty mixture. Add beef broth, mushrooms, and onion. Simmer, covered, for about 30 minutes.
- In a small mixing bowl, blend sour cream, flour, and caraway seed. Add to the simmering broth and meatballs.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- Meanwhile, prepare the spaetzle by sifting together the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs and milk and beat well. Place in a coarse-sieved colander and sieve (pushing the batter through the holes of the colander) directly over a rapidly boiling pot of lightly salted water. Cook for about 5 minutes, drain.
- Sprinkle spaetzle with a mixture of fine breadcrumbs, garlic powder and melted butter.
- Place a large portion of the spaetzle on a serving platter and hollow out a well in the center. Spoon meatballs and sauce in the center of the spaetzle and serve warm.

BEST EASY MEATBALLS
Full of flavor from Italian herbs, Parmesan cheese, and a blend of ground round and Italian sausage, these meatballs have a nice crust thanks to a bit of time in the oven before they're slow-simmered in marinara sauce. They're the perfect complement to Sunday spaghetti!

- Add the ground meat, diced onion, cracked egg, breadcrumbs, mustard, paprika, salt, and pepper to a bowl.
- Mix everything together for a few minutes with your clean hands until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed and stay together when you form a rough ball in your hand. The consistency is important to stop the meatballs from falling apart later. If the mixture feels too wet/sticky, add a few more breadcrumbs.
- Form approximately 8 meatballs that are slightly smaller than the size of your palm. Slightly flatten off the top and the bottom of the meatball so that they are not a fully rounded ball. Make sure that the meatballs are roughly the same size so that they'll be done frying at the same time.
- Heat approximately 1-2 tablespoons of butter (depending on your pan size) in a large frying pan. Once the butter is melted and hot, add (some) of the meatballs and fry them on medium-low heat for approx. 7-10 minutes until the bottom is browned.
