How to Make Meatballs and Gravy

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, mash the bread with the milk. In another bowl, combine turkey, 1/4 cup of the onion, garlic, salt, pepper, bread mixture and egg yolk and form into 1-inch meatballs.

  2. Step 2

    In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat until hot. Add meatballs and cook, turning, until browned. Transfer meatballs to a bowl and set aside.

  3. Step 3

    In the same skillet, add remaining onion and cook until onion is softened, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté until the liquid the mushrooms give off has evaporated and mixture is dry. Add broth and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, in a cup, dissolve cornstarch in 1 tablespoon water. Add cornstarch mixture to the mushrooms in the skillet and stir until sauce is thickened.

  4. Step 4

    Add white wine and meatballs with any juices, reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Turn off heat and stir in yogurt and parsley. Serve over cooked noodles.
