Welcome to how to make Swedish Meatballs. My month of one pot cooking ends tomorrow and I thought it would be fantastic to have the last two days dedicated to meatballs.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Start by making your meatballs. In a large bowl mix together the pork mince, onion, wholemeal bread, dill and mixed herbs. Make into balls and put to one side.
  • In a large pan on a medium heat add your olive oil and when the oil is nice and hot add your meatballs. Allow to cook on all sides so that they have a lovely colour to them.
  • Now concentrate on your sauce or as the Swede’s call it “gravy”. Add your soft cheese and pork stock and mix well and allow them to cover the meatballs. If the sauce is not thick enough then add some extra soft cheese and if it is too thick add a little more pork stock.
  • Cook the sauce in the pan on a medium heat with the meatballs for 10 minutes. Then take your largest meatball from the pan and chop it in half on a chopping board. If it is cooked in the middle then you’re ready to serve.

Notes

You’ll notice that there are no eggs in this meatball recipe. This is because pork has a different texture to minced beef and you don’t need it.
