How to Make Bavarian Meatballs And Cabbage
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, 1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- Shape the mixture into 16 meatballs (approximately 1.5 inches in diameter).
- Heat 2 tablespoons of shortening in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides, then remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, whisk together 10 oz condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup water, 4 oz cream cheese, and 1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds until smooth.
- Add 2 stalks celery (finely chopped) and 1 medium carrot (finely chopped) to the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Return the meatballs to the skillet.
- Add 1 medium green bell pepper (chopped) and 1 lb green cabbage (shredded) to the skillet.
- Bring to a simmer, then cover the skillet and transfer to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the meatballs are cooked through. Stir occasionally during baking.
- Serve hot, spooned over mashed potatoes.
