Meatballs Stroganoff

This recipe uses wheat germ instead of bread crumbs, for a different delicious flavor.

2 pounds ground beef
1 cup regular wheat germ
2 eggs
1 cup dairy sour cream
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 tablespoons bottled steak sauce
1 cup stewed tomatoes

Combine beef, wheat germ, eggs, 1/2 cup sour cream, onion, salt and one tablespoon steak sauce in a large bowl. Mix until well-blended and shape into one-inch balls. Brown in a large frying pan.

Remove meat from pan. Stir remaining steak sauce and tomatoes into pan. Return meatballs to pan, cover, and simmer fifteen minutes. Remove meat from pan with a slotted spoon and place in a large, deep serving dish. Keep warm.

Stir about a quarter-cup of the hot sauce into the remaining sour cream in a small bowl. Stir back into the sauce in the pan. Heat very slowly just until hot. Spoon over meatballs. Garnish with watercress if desired. Serves eight.
