in a medium bowl, combine ground beef, minced onion, bread crumbs, egg, allspice, salt and black pepper. Use hands to gently mix until all ingredients are incorporated. Try not to over mix.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Using a spoon, scoop out portions of the meat mixture and gently roll in your hands to make meatballs in uniform size. Add meatballs to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 7-8 minutes.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the browned meatballs from the pan and set aside.
Add the flour and butter to the skillet and mix with a flat wooden spoon, stirring constantly until both are combined and flour begins to bubble and brown. Slowly add beef broth, stirring while adding. Stir in milk and cook for several minutes.
Add meatballs back to pan. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes until meatballs are cooked through.
Serve meatballs and sauce over cooked egg noodles.
Dried minced onion is an easy shortcut to use in this recipe, but if you prefer to use fresh, you can certainly do that!If you don't have allspice, use equal portions nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves to equal ½ tsp.
