Fry the onions in a little margarine until golden brown and add to the minced meat. Add the squeezed-out bread roll, eggs, mustard, herbs, salt, pepper, and paprika, and knead everything well. Heat the margarine in a pan, form the meatballs into balls, roll them in a little flour, and fry until brown and crispy. When the balls are cooked, keep them warm. Fry a clove of garlic in the frying fat, stir in the flour, and sweat until lightly browned. Whisk continuously, then add water and stir in the stock cube, tomato paste, and sour cream.
