Instructions

Make meatballs by combining all meatball ingredients. Scoop out twenty balls, about 1 ¼ ounces each and roll. Refrigerate while you make the sauce.

In a large deep skillet or saute pan, melt butter and add onions and saute for three minutes over medium heat.

Add the tomato paste and cook for two minutes.

Add the flour, lower heat and cook two more minutes.

Add the Worcestershire sauce, stir then add the beef stock, gravy color and pureed tomatoes.

Bring the mixture up to a simmer then gently add all of the meatballs.

Cover the pan, lower to a slow simmer and cook 15 minutes. Turn meatballs over, cover again and cook 15 more minutes.

While meatballs are cooking prepare the mashed potatoes. Serve meatballs and sauce over the mashed potatoes.
