- Combine all meatball ingredients together in a large bowl. Roll into tablespoon sized balls and place on a lined baking tray.
- Place meatballs in the oven on 200°c for around 25 minutes or until cooked through. You will need to turn these a few times so that they cook and brown evenly.
Sauce
- In a saucepan over a medium heat, melt butter until it starts to simmer (starts bubbling), and whisk in plain flour.
- Slowly add beef stock while whisking until sauce thickens. Add Cream, soy sauce, mustard and simmer for 5 minutes until thick and creamy.
- Once meatballs have cooked, top them in the sauce and serve with greens, mashed potatoes.
Notes
Meatballs can be stored in the fridge for 2 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
