Homemade meatballs are better than any store bought meatballs. But this is a little something different than your classic meatballs. These salmon meatballs are cooked to a tasty golden brown in butter and served with roasted cabbage and a delicious lemon bechamel sauce.
The lemon bechamel sauce pairs nicely and tastes so good with the olive oil drizzled cabbage steaks (and of course, the meatballs)!
