ALMOST-FAMOUS SWEDISH MEATBALLS

Some people drive for hours to get to an Ikea store, and we know they aren't making the trek just for the $9.99 chairs. They're going for the Swedish meatballs. The dish has been a main attraction at Ikea Restaurants since an in-store chef developed the recipe in Switzerland in 1985. Although Ikea's Real Swedish Food Book, published in 2000, included a meatball recipe, reps confirmed that it is not the one served at their restaurants. Ikea is keeping that baby a secret, so chefs in Food Network Kitchens hit a nearby store for a tasting, then created this spot-on copy.

Steps:

  • Make the meatballs: Put the breadcrumbs in a large bowl. Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, allspice, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the milk and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a simmer. Pour the milk mixture over the breadcrumbs and stir to make a thick paste; let cool. Add the beef, pork, egg and egg white to the bowl and mix until combined.
  • Brush a baking sheet with vegetable oil. Roll the meat into 1-inch balls and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake the meatballs until cooked through, about 20 minutes.
  • Make the gravy: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking, until smooth. Whisk in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a simmer. Add the cream and meatballs. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the gravy thickens, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Transfer to a serving dish; sprinkle with the parsley and serve with lingonberry jam, if desired.

BEST EVER EASY SWEDISH MEATBALL APPETIZER

My aunt gave me this recipe once when I was trying to think of something to take to a picnic. This is so easy and delicious; every time I have made it I never bring home leftovers! They disappear and everyone begs for the recipe! You can use your own homemade meatballs, but I just use a bag of prepared frozen Swedish meatballs! Sometimes I add potatoes and make it a meal over rice or egg noodles!

  • Lil’ Smokies and Meatballs Appetizer. This scrumptious, protein-packed appetizer is perfect for when a single meat just won’t do. All you’ll need to make it are little smokies, frozen meatballs, BBQ sauce, chili sauce, grape jelly, and a Crockpot or slow cooker.
  • Slow Cooker Bourbon Meatballs. If you’re looking for a Crockpot meatball appetizer with a smokier, more savory flavor, try these bourbon meatballs instead.
  • Meatball Sliders. These meatball sliders are a cheesy, saucy mess, but you’ll love every last bite. If you’re looking for a fun, individualized way to serve your guests a delicious Italian treat, give these little sliders a try.
  • Swedish Meatballs. It seems crazy that Ikea – a popular home furnishings store – is so well-known for its phenomenal Swedish meatballs, but hey, we live in a crazy world!
  • Sticky Thai Meatballs. These meatballs may be sticky and just a touch messy, but if you’re in the market for Asian-flavored meatballs with an incredible sweet and savory sauce, these fit the bill.
  • Tangy Glazed Meatballs. You’ll make the glaze for these juicy meatballs from ketchup, A1 steak sauce, chili sauce, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, and the secret ingredient: mango chutney.
  • Hawaiian Meatballs. I’m not sure why – maybe it’s the pineapple chunks – but these Hawaiian meatballs always remind me of Panda Express’ Sweetfire Chicken (only with meatballs instead).
