1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1 egg
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil (for frying)
For the mushroom gravy:

2 tablespoons butter

8 oz mushrooms, sliced
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Directions:

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well until combined.
Shape the mixture into small meatballs (about 1 inch in diameter).
