MOM'S CHRISTMAS SWEDISH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Saute onions in 3 T. butter. Let cool a bit and lightly mix the meat, onions, bread crumbs, eggs, 1 1/2 cups of the cream. salt, pepper, nutmeg and parsley. Form into meatballs, about the size of a small walnut, place on cookie trays, and bake at 375 for 20-25 mn.
• Put in two casseroles, and make the cream gravy.
• Melt the 1/4 cup butter in a large, heavy saucepan Add the 1/4 cup flour, a touch more salt and pepper, cook for at least one minute. Do not brown. Gradually add the remaining cream, stirring continuously, until thickened. I like to add some Kitchen Bouquet for more flavor and some color at this point.
• Pour over the meatballs.
• Note: At this point, we generally freeze them and then defrost and bake for an hour or so on Christmas, as this recipe makes a lot of meatballs, so it is time consuming and who wants to do all that on the day of, right?.
• Also, you can freeze the cooked meatballs alone, and make the gravy later and pour it over the meatballs right before you bake them.

PARTY SWEDISH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Place meat in large mixing bowl.
• In another small bowl, add the coffeemate and the water and mix together stir quickly & pour this over the meat.
• Add the breadcrumbs, salt, eggs, onion & basil and start kneading together by hand until all ingredients are very well blended. *Note, I place my onions and basil in a mini food processor and it is so much better for the meatballs because you dont get those chunks of diced onion or basil.
• Roll meatballs into mini golf ball shaped sizes and place on ungreased cookie sheets about 2" apart.
• Bake in oven (center rack) at 350 deg. for about 5-7 minute About halfway through cooking time, I use tongs and turn the meatballs over so that the raw sides get cooked. I bake mine a little longer until dark brown color & centers are fully cooked.
• Remove meatballs and place in a deep baking/casserole dish & set aside.
• For the sauce.
• Mix water and gravy mix in a sauce pan over low heat until mix dissolves. Bring to boil then add the salt, pepper & container of sour cream. You must stir constantly until all sour cream dissolves and the sauce becomes a caramel color with no white left.
• Pour sauce over the meatballs and put either on sterno rack to start cooking/thickening sauce or bake in oven on low temp setting of about 250 or so. The sauce will thicken but keep temp on low setting until you serve or they can dry out fast.

• Saute meatballs in melted margarine and the oil until browned.
• Remove meatballs from the pan and set aside.
• Add flour to the grease in the pan(to make a roux) and stir constantly for 30-60 seconds.
• Add 1/2 of the carton of half and half, the gravy master, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Stir until it starts to thicken, and then add meatballs back to the pan.
• Simmer on low for 40 minutes.
• As it thickens more, you can add the rest of the half and half as needed. (I usually end up adding the rest little by little because I like it saucey and because some of the sauce cooks away while simmering.).
• Re-season with salt and pepper to your taste, before serving on top of cooked egg noodles. Enjoy!

AUNT BEE'S SWEDISH MEATBALLS RECIPE

• 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).
