EASY SWEDISH MEATBALLS (IKEA COPYCAT)

Steps:

• Start by placing all the ingredients for the meatballs into a large bowl and mixing together with your hands until well combined.
• Divide the mixture into quarters and then make 5 meatballs from each quarter (so 20 meatballs in total). Each meatball will weigh approximately 25g (I like to weigh my first meatball as a guide and then try to make the others about the same size).
• Put the meatballs on an oiled grill rack over a tray covered in foil and place under a medium hot grill (broiler) for 7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked all the way through.
• While the meatballs are cooking, get your creamy gravy started... In a large jug, mix the cornflour with a small amount of cold water to make a paste, then add the beef stock. Pour into a large wide saucepan or frying pan and cook over a medium heat until nicely thickened. Add the double cream and mix together thoroughly.
• Finally add the meatballs to the creamy gravy. Cook the meatballs in the cream sauce for 1 more minute and then serve with the mashed potatoes, lingonberry jam (or cranberry sauce) and picked cucumber. Garnish with dill.

ALMOST-FAMOUS SWEDISH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Make the meatballs: Put the breadcrumbs in a large bowl. Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, allspice, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the milk and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a simmer. Pour the milk mixture over the breadcrumbs and stir to make a thick paste; let cool. Add the beef, pork, egg and egg white to the bowl and mix until combined.
• Brush a baking sheet with vegetable oil. Roll the meat into 1-inch balls and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake the meatballs until cooked through, about 20 minutes.
• Make the gravy: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking, until smooth. Whisk in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a simmer. Add the cream and meatballs. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the gravy thickens, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Transfer to a serving dish; sprinkle with the parsley and serve with lingonberry jam, if desired.
