Meatballs
2 Tablespoons olive oil (for Frying them)
1 lb. ground meat
1 large egg beaten
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup onion diced very small or grated
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Casserole
2 and 1/2 cups cups uncooked egg noodles
1 cup beef broth
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pint heavy whipping cream
2 cups shredded swiss cheese
fresh chopped parsley (optional)
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and spray a 9x13 baking dish with non stick spray and set aside.
in mixing bowl combine ground meat, bread crumbs, egg, onion, nutmeg, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix until combined, don't over mix this. If you over mix it, you'll end up with a firm, compact texture after cooking. Once mixed, roll the meat into 1" balls. Then in preheated skillet large enough to fry them all at the same time on medium high heat, add in olive oil and the meatballs. Brown them on all sides. When they are done, remove from pan and set aside. Also remove any pooled grease. Try to leave the browned bits in the pan as they will add sooo much flavor to the cream mixture you'll be making in this pan shortly.
Boil your egg noodles 1/2 the cooking time. You want them to be somewhat firm when you assemble this They will finish cooking while in the oven. drain them and set them aside until casserole assembly.
Meanwhile, in the frying pan you fried the meatballs in, return it to the heat and add in broth, cream and worcestershire sauce. Simmer on low for approximately 10 minutes or until it thickens up slightly. Add salt and pepper to taste if you choose.
Assembly: in your 9x13 baking dish, add in the partially cooked egg noodles, arrange the meatballs on top so they are evenly distributed then pour the broth and cream mixture evenly over everything. Sprinkle the swiss cheese evenly over everything.
Bake UNCOVERED for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and the casserole is bubbling.
