Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave with a splash of water to revive the gravy.

How can I make the gravy thicker or thinner?

For thicker gravy, mix 1 tsp flour with 2 tbsp cold water and stir into the sauce. For thinner gravy, add a splash of broth or water until desired consistency is reached.

Can I bake the meatballs instead of pan-frying for a healthier option?

Yes, bake meatballs at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes on a lined baking sheet, then add to the gravy to finish cooking.

What can I use instead of sour cream in the gravy?

Plain yogurt, crème fraîche, or coconut milk (for dairy-free) work well as sour cream substitutes in the gravy.
