1 lb ground beef

1/4 cup rice

2 eggs

2 tablespoons fresh parsley; chopped fine

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons flour

2 eggs

2 lemons; juice of

Directions

Mix first 7 ingedients together and form into tablespoon sized balls.

Boil 6 cups of water and gently add the meatballs to simmer, uncovered, for about 25 minutes.

Remove meatballs from pot with a skimmer and set aside.

Strain out a cup of the cooking broth and set aside, discarding the remainder.

Rinse out your pot well and melt the butter.

Add the flour to melted butter and stir on low heat to make a roux; make sure it does not burn.

Add the cup of reserved broth and continue to stir over low heat until it starts to thicken.

In a food processor, combine 2 eggs and the juice of 2 lemons.

Combine this egg lemon mixture with the roux, slowly, while stirring to desired thickness.

Add the reserved meatballs and cook on low for another 3 minutes, gently so as not to break them.
