AUNT BEE'S SWEDISH MEATBALLS RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the meat in a large bowl. Grate the onions into the meat.
• Stir together bread or bread crumbs with ¼ cup of half-and-half, just until moistened.
• Add eggs, soaked bread crumbs, sugar, salt, and pepper to the beef mixture. Use your hands or a fork to gently combine, being careful not to over-mix the meat.
• Use a medium (1 ½ tablespoon) scoop to shape the meat into balls. Each meatball will be about the size of a golf ball. Place the meatballs on a baking sheet so that they will be ready to fry.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 teaspoon of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. When the butter melts, sauté meatballs in batches, turning while they cook so that all sides are evenly browned and the meat is cooked through (about 8-10 minutes per batch). Be careful not to overcrowd the pan.
• Repeat until all meatballs are cooked. Remove meatballs to a baking sheet lined with paper towels, and cover loosely with foil to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.

AUNT DAGMAR'S SWEDISH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• For the Meatballs
• Pre-heat the oven to 350F.
• Combine the beef and pork in a medium bowl. Soak the bread crumbs in warm milk until softened and then add to the meat mixture, gently mixing ingredients together.
• Mix in the remaining ingredients to the meat mixture. Using a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop (for uniformity), form into small balls and place on a parchment or foil lined baking sheet.
• The meatballs can be prepared with two methods:
• Oven method: Once all the meatballs are on the lined baking sheet, place them in the oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes or until nicely browned. (I used a convection roast option and the meatballs were done in about 12 minutes and beautifully browned.)
• Pan Seared method: Pre-heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon high heat oil in a large non-stick, ceramic coated or cast iron pan. Brown the meatballs in batches and then place on the baking sheet. Place the meatballs in the oven for about 8-10 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through.
• Serve these delicious meatballs with the Cream Gravy below, along with boiled new potatoes and lingonberry jam. Yum!
• For the Gravy
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk, cooking the flour for 2-3 minutes, careful not to brown the roux.
• Slow whisk in the warm milk, then the broth and bring to a slow boil until thickened. If the boil is too lively, turn down the heat and slowly simmer until the sauce has reduced and thickened.
