Swedish Meatballs
Ingredients
  • 1
    egg, beaten
  • 1/4
    cup milk
  • 3/4
    cup soft bread crumbs (1 slice)
  • 1/2
    cup finely chopped onion (1 medium)
  • 1/4
    cup snipped fresh parsley
  • 1/4
    teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/8
    teaspoon ground allspice or nutmeg
  • 8
    ounces ground beef or ground veal
  • 8
    ounces ground pork or ground lamb
  • 1
    tablespoon butter or margarine
  • 2
    tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2
    teaspoons instant beef bouillon granules
  • 1/8
    teaspoon black pepper
  • 2
    cups milk
  • 3
    cups hot cooked noodles
  • Snipped fresh parsley (optional)
Directions

1. In a large bowl combine egg and the 14 cup milk. Stir in bread crumbs, onion, the 1/4 cup parsley, the 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and allspice. Add beef and pork. Mix well. Shape into 30 meatballs.

2. In a large skillet cook half the meatballs at a time in hot butter over medium heat about 10 minutes or until done (an instant-read thermometer inserted into meatballs should register 160 degrees F), turning to brown evenly. Remove meatballs from skillet, reserving drippings; drain meatballs on paper towels. Measure 2 tablespoons drippings; if necessary, add cooking oil to make the 2 tablespoons.

3. Stir flour, bouillon granules, and the 18 teaspoon pepper into drippings. Gradually stir in the 2 cups milk. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 1 minute more. Return meatballs to skillet. Heat through. Serve over noodles. If desired, sprinkle with additional snipped parsley. Makes 5 or 6 servings.
