Swedish meatballs

Juicy meatballs covered in a heavenly creamy sauce, then served with fluffy mashed potatoes.

Materials

• 1 package of our handmade meatballs
• ½ cup unsalted butter
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• 4 cups beef broth
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
• ¼ teaspoon grated nutmeg
• 1 cup of cream
• Mashed potatoes for serving

Step by step process

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add half of the meatballs in a single layer. Cook until the meatballs are golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes . Carefully flip them over and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 3 minutes more. Transfer the meatballs to a plate. Repeat with the remaining meatballs. Drain any excess fat from the pan into an ovenproof dish.
2. Using the same pan, reduce heat to medium and add butter and stir until melted. When butter begins to bubble, sprinkle in flour and cook, stirring, until fully incorporated, about 1 minute . Whisk in beef broth, salt, pepper, lemon juice, allspice and nutmeg, and heavy cream until fully incorporated. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until smooth and slightly thickened.
3. Add the meatballs to the sauce and turn to coat. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
4. Serve hot over mashed potatoes.
