Why I Love This Recipe
I first had this when I was 9 years old, and my newly-married sister invited me to dinner. She was only 18 and just learning to cook; I think the recipe may have come in a recipe book she got for a wedding gift. Anyway, 44 years later, she's still married and making this stew. I love it; guess her hubby does, too!!

1 egg
1 teasp. Worcestershire sauce

Remove meatballs from pot and set aside.

Return meatballs to pot, add peas, onions, the remaining consomme. Adjust seasonings and simmer, covered, a minimum of 15 minutes before serving.
