I dont know if anyone can help, my grandfather (rest his soul) was polish and he used to make a meat dish which was large sized meatballs in a very think and tasty gravy.

In english he used to say the were call granades. I know it was mince meat not sure if beef or pork definately onions in it.

Any way I digress, he has long since passed away and I would so love to try and make these for my children as I loved them and I unfortunately can not find any receipe that sounds anything like it.

Can any one help please with finding out what this recepie might containe

Thanks so much in advance

Mince meat has a different take in some cultures. I think of meat,usually we used roast beef, mixed with apples and lots of spices such as cinnamon and cloves. My mother mixedTtogether and baked it a very low heat in the oven for something like 10-12 hours. This is put into a pie. In the U.S. one seldom now finds real mince meat; rather it is only the apple mixture. Meatballs are something quite different.

ground beef, ground pork and onion

This is a spanking idea, its exactly as the Italians make their meatballs.
