1 egg — beaten
2/3 cup soft bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated onion
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 can condensed beef consomme — undiluted
In a bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients; add beef and mix well. Shape into 1 1/4-inch balls. In a skillet over medium heat, brown meatballs; drain. Transfer to a greased 1 1/2-quart baking dish. Combine the cornstarch and the consomme until smooth; add to skillet. Bring to a boil, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Boil for 2 minutes or until thickened. Pour over the meatballs. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes or until no longer pink.
Makes about 2 1/2 dozen meatballs.
