Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed
1 pound ground sirloin
1/2 small onion, chopped
1/3 cup dry bread crumbs
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup butter, divided
1 (16 ounce) package mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can beef broth
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1/3 cup sour cream

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet with oil.
2 Combine ground sirloin, onion, bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, egg, salt, and black pepper in a bowl until well mixed. Shape into golf ball-sized meatballs; place on the prepared baking sheet.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are no longer pink in centers, about 15 minutes.
4 Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until soft, about 10 minutes. Push mushrooms to one side of the skillet.
5 Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet. Whisk in flour; cook until it begins to brown lightly and smell fragrant. Whisk in broth and mustard; bring to a boil. Add meatballs; cook until some sauce is absorbed, 10 to 15 minutes. Off heat, stir in sour cream until combined.
