Ingredients

Scale
  • 400g can condensed mushroom soup
  • 500ml beef stock
  • 1 packet French onion soup mix (40g)
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1kg frozen beef meatballs
  • 400g egg noodles
  • 200ml sour cream

Instructions

  1. Create the base: In your slow cooker, whisk together the mushroom soup, beef stock, onion soup mix, and Worcestershire sauce until completely smooth.
  2. Add meatballs: Add the frozen meatballs to the slow cooker and stir gently to coat them in the sauce mixture.
  3. Slow cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until meatballs are heated through and tender.
  4. Cook noodles: About 20 minutes before serving, cook the egg noodles according to packet directions. Drain well.
  5. Finish with cream: Stir the sour cream through the meatballs until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  6. Serve: Serve the creamy meatballs over the cooked noodles, or mix everything together for easy serving.

Notes

  • RECIPE NOTES & TIPS:
  • Quality matters: Choose good quality frozen meatballs for the best flavour and texture.
  • Timing is key: Add sour cream at the very end to prevent curdling.
  • Make it yours: This recipe doubles easily for larger crowds or meal prep.
  • Storage: Keeps in the fridge for 3 days and reheats beautifully on the stovetop.
  • Freezing: Freezes for up to 3 months (freeze without noodles for best results).
  • Serving options: Delicious over mashed potato, rice, or with crusty bread.
  • Lighter version: Substitute sour cream with Greek yoghurt if preferred.
