THIMBLE MEAT BALLS — Combine equal portions ground meat and dry bread crumbs. Add salt, pepper, grated onion, a bit of mustard, and a chopped tomato. Add a beaten egg and beat the meat as you would cake batter until all ingredients are completely blended. Form into meat balls the size of a walnut and brown quickly in hot shortening. Then add just enough water to cover bottom of the pan. cover pan and steam for 15 minutes. Thicken drippings in the pan and serve with meat balls over steamed rice or toast. STUFFED STEAK Have steak cut very thin. Spread steak with a thick layer of seasoned, breadcrumb stuffing. Roll up steak, jollv-roll style and tie or skewer.
