MOM'S SWEDISH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a sauté pan. Add onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until onions are soft. Add to a large bowl.
• Add bread crumbs to a medium sized bowl. Add milk, starting with 1/4 cup - just enough to wet all of the bread.
• Add meats to large bowl with onions and add the parsley, egg, salt, ginger, and nutmeg. Mix well and then add the milk soaked bread crumbs. If there is any extra milk in the bowl with the bread, do not add.
• Add meat mixture to fridge for at least 15 minutes, this will help with shaping the meatballs.
• Shape meat into 2 - 3ish inch meatballs and add to a rimmed baking sheet. Don't worry about crowding.
• Bake for 30 minutes.
• Once meatballs are done, remove meatballs with tongs and add to a plate or bowl. Then use a spatula to scrape all of the drippings from the pan into a large pot or dutch oven.
• Heat pot to medium and add 2 tablespoons of butter to the meatball drippings. Add flour and mix flour and butter to create a roux.
• Slowly add beef broth, mixing roux with it as it's added until all the broth is incorporated.
• Add the meatballs back to pan and let simmer on medium low for 15-20 minutes.
• Serve over noodles, rice, or whatever you'd like!

SWEDISH MEATBALLS WITH NOODLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
• Combine ground beef, pork, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup milk, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, and allspice in a large bowl; mix until just combined. Use a rounded 1-tablespoon measure to form mixture into meatballs. Place meatballs on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.
• While the meatballs are baking, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour. Cook, whisking constantly, for about 1 minute, being careful not to burn or brown the flour. Gradually whisk in the remaining milk and broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sauce has thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce to taste and remove from the heat.
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rapid boil. Cook egg noodles at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 9 minutes.
• Drain any grease from the meatballs. Add meatballs to sauce; toss gently to coat. Turn on lowest heat to warm. Add milk or water to thin sauce if too thick.
• Drain egg noodles and serve immediately topped with sauce, meatballs, and parsley.

Steps:

• Combine the beaten egg, milk, and breadcrumbs; let stand for 5 minutes.
• In a small frying pan over medium heat, saute the chopped onions in 1 tablespoon of butter until lightly golden in color.
• In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumb mixture, the sauteed onions, the ground beef and pork, salt, pepper, nutmeg and allspice. Mix well with hands until smooth. Shape into about 36 meatballs, each about 1-inch in diameter.
• In a very large skillet, over medium heat, brown the meatballs in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter (brown half the meatballs at a time, if necessary, combining them all in the pan at the end.) Pour off any excess fat. Sprinkle the meatballs with the flour and shake the skillet. Add the 1 cup of hot water, stirring gently to loosen any browned bits and blend well. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 35 to 40 minutes, stirring gently occasionally. Add the half & half and heat thoroughly.
• Serve the hot meatballs and gravy as an appetizer, or, as a main dish over egg noodles or with mashed potatoes, if desired.

Steps:

• Mix beef, pork, and veal together in a bowl with the onions, egg, white bread broken up into small pieces, and sprinkling of salt and pepper.
• Roll into balls about the size of a golf ball or a little smaller.
• 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!
