    1. First, cook the rice until it's about halfway done. You can do this on the stove or in the slow cooker using the "Rice" or "Grain" setting, depending on your model. 2. Mix the ground meat with the cooked rice, shape the mixture into balls, and roll them in flour. 3. Grease the slow cooker insert with vegetable oil and arrange the meatballs inside. 4. In a separate bowl, stir together the sour cream and broth (or water), then add the salt and Italian herbs. 5. Pour the sauce over the meatballs and cook them on the "Stew" (Braise) setting for 40 minutes. Serve the meatballs spooned with the sour-cream gravy they cooked in, alongside your favorite side dish. Enjoy!
