| 1. Crumble bread slices as much as possible (use a blender or whatever works for you). | 2. Take 1 1/2 cups worth of the bread crumbs and mix with the cream in a medium bowl. | 3. Allow to stand 10-15 minutes. | 4. Using 1 tbsp margarine, saute onion with chives about 10 minutes, or until onion is wilted. | 5. To bread crumb mix, add onions and chives, beef, salt, pepper and allspice and mix thoroughly. | 6. Cover and refrigerate 1 1/2- 3 hours. | 7. Remove meat mixture from refrigerator and form into small balls. | 8. (I get roughly 40 from this recipe, of course size is up to you). | 9. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a frying pan and add meatballs. | 10. Cook until done in the middle, and nicely browned on the outside (15-20 minutes over medium/high heat). | 11. Remove from pan and place on paper towel. | 12. Drain off about half the drippings, removing any large bits. | 13. Return pan to medium-high heat and add broth. | 14. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. | 15. Add sour cream and flour to broth, and mix well. | 16. Allow this to cook about 10 minutes, just below boiling. | 17. Add the meatballs to the gravy and allow to cook about 5 more minutes. | 18. Serve either over egg noodles or mashed potatoes if a main course, otherwise they are great alone. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
