    1 Tbsp. salad oil
    4 to 6 onions, cut in eighths

Preparation
    Combine first 7 ingredients and mix thoroughly. Form into meatballs about the size of a walnut.
    Makes about 40 meatballs. Dip in flour.
    Heat oil in 8 to 10-quart kettle.
    Lightly brown meatballs on all sides.
    Add remaining ingredients (except corn, which should be added at last 10 minutes of cooking).
