Swedish Meatballs 12

1 1/4 pound of hamburger
1/4 pound of ground pork
1 1/2 cup of soft bread crumbs
1 cup of light cream
1/2 cup of finely chopped onions
1 egg
1/4 cup of parsley flakes
1 1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of ginger
Dash of pepper and nutmeg

Grind meats together twice. Soak bread in cream for about 5 minutes, cook onions in butter until tender. Mix meats, crumbs, 1 egg, parsley and seasonings and beat until fluffy, 5 minutes at medium speed. Form in 1 1/2 inch balls (easier shaping with wet hands and chilled meats). Brown lightly in 2 tablespoons butter. Remove meatballs from pan. Make gravy by stirring 2 tablespoons flour into drippings. Add 3/4 cup beef broth, 1/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon instant coffee. Heat and stir until gravy thickens. Put meatballs back into gravy. Cook slowly, covered, for 30 minutes.
