How to make meatballs and gravy:

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, pork, bread crumbs, onions, parsley, egg, salt, 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper and nutmeg. Mix well and shape into 1 1/2 inch balls. In a large skillet, heat 1 1/2 teaspoons of the oil. Add half the meatballs and cook over medium heat until browned, about 8 minutes; transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining oil and meatballs. Add broths to skillet and return other meatballs. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Remove meatballs to a bowl. Strain cooking liquid and reserve. Return 1/2 cup of the liquid to the skillet. Whisk in flour until smooth. Cook over medium heat 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in remaining liquid, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and thyme; simmer 5 minutes more. Return meatballs to skillet and simmer in gravy until heated through. Serve with whipped potatoes. Makes about 6 servings.
