Cooking
  1. Bake the meatballs in the oven for about 20 minutes until they are cooked through and slightly browned.
  2. While the meatballs are baking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are golden brown.
  3. Once the mushrooms are cooked, pour in the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Slowly add the heavy cream and stir until combined.
