Boulettes Francaise (Meatballs in White Sauce)

I was looking for a recipe my mother used to make as she doesn't remember the recipe (she never wrote everyday recipes down). I found this one online and it is just as good as Mom's but I'm not going to tell her that. This was written in the recipe description and it is so true. "This is an old recipe which was made in most Canadian homes. Every housewife had her own particular way of preparing this recipe. It was a dish that pleased the family and one that is recalled with fondness"
