Savory Swedish Meatballs with Onion
Treat yourself to a taste of the north with these hearty meatballs, perfect for warming up on a cold night. Smothered in a deliciously tangy onion sauce with a subtle hint of paprika, they're as ideal for a cozy dinner as they are for a party appetizer.
Ingredients
  • 450g / 1.3 lbs Swedish Sausages (Falukorv), sliced
  • 250ml / 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • 250g / 2 cups shredded cheese (31% fat)
  • 115g / 4 oz butter, softened
  • 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
  • 3 pickled cucumbers, sliced
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 60g / 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 45g / 3 tbsp mustard
  • 2.5ml / 0.5 tsp paprika powder
  • 160ml / 0.67 cups water
Instructions

1. In a sizeable mixing bowl, combine 250g (8.8 oz) of Swedish meatballs, 120ml (1/2 cup) of heavy cream, 60ml (1/4 cup) of water, and 115g (4 oz) of shredded cheese. Mix thoroughly until the cheese is fully incorporated into the mixture.

2. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate at 4°C (39°F) for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

3. In a large skillet, melt 30g (2 tbsp) of butter over medium heat at 180°C (350°F). Add 2 medium-sized sliced onions and cook until they become translucent and slightly caramelized, about 10-12 minutes.

4. Add 60g (2 oz) of pickled cucumbers to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

5. In a separate pan, heat 15g (1 tbsp) of oil over medium-high heat at 200°C (400°F). Cook the Swedish meatballs until they are browned on all sides and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.

6. Serve the meatballs alongside the onion sauce, garnished with a handful of fresh parsley and a few cherry tomatoes on the side. This dish can be enjoyed with a side of boiled potatoes or egg noodles, cooked according to package instructions.
