Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg

2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the meatballs until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
3. In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour to make a roux.
