    Recipe Introduction


    The Cast Iron Cookbook - Hester Harris, 1969

    List of Ingredients




    2 pounds lean ground beef
    1 pound ground pork
    1 cup bread crumbs
    2 medium potatoes, cooked and mashed
    1 large onion, grated
    2 teaspoons ground ginger
    2 teaspoons salt
    dash pepper
    5 tablespoons oil
    4 cups beef broth
    2 tablespoons flour
    1 cup heated tomato juice (optional)

    Recipe



    Combine meat, bread crumbs, potato, onion, and seasonings in a large bowl, mixing well. Form mixture into small, walnut-sized balls. Heat oil in 6-quart chicken fryer (skillet with high sides) and brown meat balls on all sides. Remove meat balls and any excess oil from chicken fryer and add broth. Mix flour with a little cold water to make a thin paste and add to broth. Replace meat balls in gravy, cover, and simmer 1 hour. Add heated tomato juice for flavor and to alter the consistency of the gravy. Serve with mashed potatoes.
    Serves 6 to 8.
