Hello everybody.
Cold rainy snowy day, started it cooking Swedish meatballs “Ikea style ” both for an order and home for lunch, did some mashed potatoes on the side.
I also did jam pie, used marmalade this time, smell is devine.
Now that snow is accumulated and we’re stuck, time to make a hot drink right?
Hello everybody.
After searching many food apps and sites for a dish containing mined meat, something new and easy,
I decided to do this recipe at the end Swedish meatballs or as many say IKEA dish, actually it is very tasty, heart warming and satisfying , sorry IKEA but homemade ones are much tastier than yours.
Ingredients and method:
For meat balls:
* 1/2 kg minced beef.
* 1 egg.
* 1/2 cup bread crumbs.
* salt,pepper,nutmeg,all spice.
* grated small onion.
* 1 big tablespoon butter.
For the sauce:
* 1/3 cup flour.
* 4 cups chicken broth or 1 cube Maggi cubes dissolved in 4 cups water.
* 1/2 cup heavy cream.
* salt,pepper,all spice to taste.
* some chopped parsley for garnish.
* Mix beef with all ingredients and form it into balls.
* heat butter and saute balls till done and golden.
* remove balls and add flour to remaining butter and mix well.
* gradually add broth and whisk quickly to get a smooth silky sauce.
* leave to simmer and thicken for 10 minutes.
* add the cream and seasoning then return balls in sauce and simmer for 15 minutes.
Serve with rice or mashed potatoes, a special kind of jam is usually served with it but I didn’t have time to look for it,guess it’s available in IKEA called lingonberry jam.
final outcome .
