Method

For meatballs, combine ground beef with remaining ingredients. Scoop or shape small meatballs, about ½ inch (1 cm) across and chill until ready to cook.

For mushroom sauce, heat 1 Tbsp (15 mL) of oil in a large sauté pan on medium-high heat. Sear meatballs to brown on all sides, but not cook completely. Remove from pan and reserve. Reduce heat to medium and add remaining oil. Add onion
