Instructions

For the Meatballs

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and milk until combined
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with the egg/milk mixture, then add all of the other ingredients.
Shape the meat into balls. I usually go for about ping pong ball or golf ball sized meatballs.
Place on baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F.

For the Coca Cola Gravy

In a medium size sauce pan bring the beef broth and coca cola to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well.
In a small bowl whisk together the cold water and the corn starch until completely dissolved.
Pour the cornstarch mixture into the boiling beef and cola broth and reduce heat to medium-low. Stir until thickened.
Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour finished Coca Cola Gravy over the meatballs.
Sprinkle green onions, sesame seeds, as desired.
