Directions:
Combine thoroughly in a bowl. Then shape into balls (anywhere from marble to walnut-sized); wet hands with water to keep meat from sticking.

Then roll the balls over a plate dusted with bread crumbs.

In a large skillet, heat 1-2 ounces oil or just enough to cover the bottom of the pan. When oil sizzles, cook meatballs in small batches. Fry about two minutes, then turn once with tongs and fry second side for 2 minutes(or till well browned).

In same skillet, stir in: 1/4 cup flour (If there isn't enough oil remaining in the skillet, add 1 tbs. butter)
1 tsp. sweet paprika not the spicy stuff
Salt and pepper to taste.

Stir in 2 1/2 cups boiling water. For richer gravy, use 1/2 water, 1/2 chicken stock, OR 2 cups liquids and 1/2 sour cream.

Return browned meatballs to gravy and simmer, covered, 20-40 minutes.
