Swedish Meatballs (homemade Ikea Meatballs) image

Recipe video above. Juicy meatballs smothered in a beautiful creamy gravy, with a hint of spicing that Swedish Meatballs are known for. Made extra soft and extra tasty by soaking fresh bread in grated onion - tried and tested technique used in my most of my meatball recipes, highly approved by readers! (See Italian Meatball reviews as an example)

Ingredients

2 slices white sandwich bread (, crusts removed, chopped into small cubes (Note 1))
1 onion (, small (brown, white or yellow))
300g / 10 oz ground beef (mince)
300g / 10 oz ground pork (mince) (, or sub with more beef (Note 2))
1 egg
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (, preferably freshly grated)
1/4 tsp All Spice powder ((Note 3))
1/4 tsp black pepper
3/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp oil
40g / 3 tbsp butter (, unsalted)
3 tbsp flour
2 cups beef broth/stock ((salt reduced), or sub with chicken)
1/2 cup heavy / thickened cream ((Note 4))

Steps:

Grate onion using a standard box grater (see video).
Scrape onion and juices into bowl. Add bread and mix well - onion juice should make bread soggy (if not, add a tiny splash of milk). Set aside to soak for 1 minute.
Add remaining Meatball ingredients EXCEPT oil. Mix well.
Using a tablespoon measure and measure out a heaped tablespoon (or use ice cream scooper which is what I do), dollop on work surface. Repeat with remaining mixture: 25 - 30 meatballs. Then roll into shape.

SWEDISH MEATBALLS WITH SECRET INGREDIENT

Swedish Meatballs With Secret Ingredient image

When I was growing up there was a chain of Swedish Smorgasbord restaurants in the area which I lived. It wasn't until about 10 years ago that I met the original owner of that chain at a private party in the last remaining restaurant in the chain. He cooked the foods for this party himself with his son who at that time was the manager of that one remaining establishment. One of the dishes that he served, personally to the 20+ persons invited, was his Swedish Meatballs. They were the absolute best tasting meatballs I ever ate. I took him aside and asked him quietly..."is the wonderful taste in these meatballs the fennel seeds in the sauce?" He smiled and whispered back..."yes that is my secret for making the best Swedish meatballs". I came upon a recipe for Swedish Meatballs at Group Recipes.com that sounded so similar to that recipe so I wanted to post this version for the ZWT #6 2010 Scandinavian Region.
