Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon (or more) Worcestershire sauce
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 large red-skinned potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 large carrots, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • 1 large rutabaga, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 3 14 1/2-ounce cans beef broth

Instructions

  1. Combine pork, beef, parsley, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper in large bowl; blend well. Form mixture into 1-inch balls. Heat oil in heavy large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Working in batches, add meatballs to pot and brown on all sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer to bowl after each batch.
  2. Pour off all but 3 tablespoons drippings from pot. Add potatoes, carrots, leeks and rutabaga; sauté 5 minutes. Add broth and tomatoes with their juices.
