Total time: 60 min
Ingredients: ¼ cup cornstarch; ½ teaspoon ground black pepper; 1 egg, lightly beaten; 2 cups sour cream; 1 (4.5 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained; ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper; 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup; 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce; 2 pounds lean ground beef; 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley; ½ teaspoon seasoned salt; ¼ cup beef bouillon granules; ⅓ cup finely chopped onion; 2 ¼ cups water, divided; ½ teaspoon paprika, or to taste; 3 slices day-old white bread, torn into small pieces; 1 teaspoon wheat-based liquid seasoning (such as Maggi® Seasoning)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Place the beef, bread, egg, liquid seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and seasoned salt in a bowl, and mix well. Using about 2 tablespoons of meat mixture per meatball, form into about 40 meatballs. Place the meatballs onto the prepared baking sheet, and bake for about 15 minutes, until the meatballs are no longer pink.

Step 3

Remove the meatballs, place them into a large baking dish with a cover, and set aside. Reduce the oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 4

Whisk the cornstarch into 1/4 cup water in a bowl until smooth. Place 2 cups of water, onion, beef bouillon granules, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat, and bring to a boil. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the hot bouillon mixture, and return to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, stir in the mushrooms, soup, parsley, and sour cream, and bring back just to a simmer.
