Swedish Meatballs - The Recipe

An easy and delicious Swedish dish that we can all enjoy - young and old.  Read the Recipe, or Watch the video (in spanish).

1/2 cup of Milk
50 gr (1/2 cup) of breadcrumbs.

Mix together, let stand for 5-10 mins to swell.  This will look like a dry paste.

500gr of minced meat (2parts beef, 1 part pork)
1 1/2 tsp of salt
1 tsp of pepper
1 tsp of sugar
2 tsp of Dijon Mustard

Mix these ingredients together

1 small onion (finely chopped)
Fry until softened

2 eggs
Mix seasoned meat, bread paste, onion and 2 eggs

Splash the mixture with a little Sparkling Water (this will add air into the meatball and make them very light)

Heat some Olive oil and butter in a frying pan.  Once it is very hot, use 2 tablespoons to scoop and shape the meat into bite-sized balls.  Fry evenly until they are quite brown.
They will be quite crispy on the outside, juicy and fluffy on the inside.
Serve with Mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce.

Enjoy!
