 Granny's Swedish Meatball

2 med. onions - minced fine
1 1/4 cup water OR milk OR 50% of each
1 cup golden bread crumbs
1 1/2 Lb. ground beef
2 eggs
1 Tbls. salt
1 Tbls. granulated sugar - optional
1 tsp. white pepper
1 tsp. black pepper
2 Tbls. butter

Combine onion, bread crumbs, and the water/milk in a bowl. Let sit for about 10-15 minutes.
-Knead beef into bread mixture.
-Add the eggs, salt, sugar, and peppers to beef mixture and carefully combine.
-Roll into balls no larger than 1" in size. (The meatballs should keep their shape. If they flatten out a bit, add another egg and make new balls. If they still don´t keep their shape, try adding more bread crumbs until they do.)
-Melt butter in frying pan and add meatballs, being careful not to crowd them.
-Fry balls on all sides until browned and no longer pink in the middle
