Directions:
Soak oats in milk for 5 minutes. Cook onion in olive oil until tender. Mix with meat, oats, milk, milk powder, egg, parsley, salt, pepper, ginger, and nutmeg until well blended. Shape into 1 ½ inch balls (mixture will be soft – for easier shaping, wet hands or chill mixture first). Brown meatballs in olive oil. Remove from skillet.

For gravy, remove all but 2 tbsp oil from skillet. Stir in flour. Add beef bouillon cube dissolved in boiling water and instant coffee powder. Cook and stir until gravy thickens and bubbles. Add meatballs. Cover; cook slowly about 30 minutes, baste occasionally.

NOTE: May substitute fresh parsley for 3 tbsp. dried parsley.
