Инструкции
- This is a bit of a task to prepare, but well worth the effort. The recipe was passed down for many generations in my husbands family who immigrated here from Russia (being Russian Jews) so, I have no idea why they called it 'German' meatballs, but a meatball by any other name...I guess! Put the garlic into a water glass and pour 2 Tablespoons boiling water over it. Mash the garlic well, then add in 2 Tablespoons more boiling water. Strain through a kitchen towel, saving the liquid only. Mix together all the ingredients, including garlic liquid then shape into balls about the size of a large egg. Roll the balls in the flour till well coated. Heat sufficient fat to make about 1/2" in a heavy skillet or possibly cast iron cooking pot. Brown the meat balls in the fat.
- Remove the meatballs and pour off all but 4 Tablespoons of the fat. SAUCE: Add in the quart. of water to the reserved fat along with thecatsup. Make a paste of the sauce ingredients, stirring in the water to get a consistency of a thin cream. After the water-catsup mix is hot, slowly add in this mix, stirring constantly to avoid lumping, till the mix has been well absorbed into the liquid. Cook gently till the sauce is slightly thickened. Place meatball in the pan, or possibly in an oven-proof roaster and make sure they are covered with the sauce. Cover pan and bake in warm oven for 1 hour. Serve with mashed potatoes. (My friends also love it with pasta or possibly rice!)
