Description
Amish Meatball Noodles is a comforting dish featuring tender meatballs simmered in rich beef gravy, served over wide ribbon egg noodles that soak up the savory flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs meatballs of beef, fully cooked and frozen
- 1 package (10.5-ounces) condensed beef gravy or brown gravy
- 2 cups beef broth
- 12 oz uncooked wide-ribbon egg noodles
Instructions
- Place the frozen beef meatballs in the bottom of a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker.
- Spoon the condensed beef gravy over the meatballs and pour the beef broth, mixing gently to blend.
- Cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or HIGH for 2-3 hours until the meatballs are cooked through and the gravy is boiling.
- 35 to 45 minutes before serving, stir the sauce to check the consistency. Add hot water if too thick, or leave the lid off for the first 10 minutes after adding noodles if too thin.
- Add the uncooked wide egg noodles to the slow cooker, ensuring they are three-quarters submerged in the gravy.
- Cook on HIGH, stirring every 15 to 20 minutes, until the noodles are tender and absorbed the gravy.
- Once the noodles are shiny, stir again to coat the pasta with the sauce and distribute the meatballs.
- Switch the slow cooker to WARM and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Make sure to keep the meatballs in a single layer for even cooking.
- Adjust the consistency of the gravy as needed based on your preference.
- Letting the dish rest enhances flavor absorption.
