1 tablespoon instant minced onion
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup water
2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil

PREPARATION:

Mix ground beef, egg, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and next 4 ingredients. Shape meat into 12 large meatballs. Heat oil in a hot skillet over medium heat; brown meatballs on all sides. Remove to a large casserole. Drain off most of the fat; to the drippings left, add marjoram and gravy.
In a large saucepan, cook carrots, small white onions, and potatoes in boiling water for about 15 minutes. Add to the casserole. Bring gravy mixture to a boil; pour over beef and vegetables in casserole. Cover and bake casserole for 1 hour. Sauté mushrooms in butter. Top casserole with mushrooms and parsley, if desired.
