Instructions

Blend ground meat, eggs, cream, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, onion, and mustard by hand or electric mixer.

Form into balls about 1–1½ inches in diameter using a cookie scoop.

Heat skillet to medium-high with enough oil to cover bottom. Fill skillet with 10–12 meatballs and fry about 10–12 minutes turning so they cook evenly.

12 min

Keep finished meatballs in warm oven at 200°F until ready.

Reserve 1½ tbsp of oil from skillet. Add bouillon, diced green pepper and pineapple chunks. Cover and cook at medium heat for 10 minutes.

10 min

Combine Triple Sec, cornstarch, vinegar, pineapple juice, sugar, salt and pepper. Whisk together. Add to skillet, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a boil and thickens.
