SWEDISH MEATBALLS WITH LINGONBERRY SAUCE



Swedish Meatballs with Lingonberry Sauce image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup fresh bread crumbs, dried out
3/4 cup milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 shallots, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon caraway seeds, toasted and ground
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground pork
1 large egg
1 handful fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped, plus more for garnish
1 handful fresh dill, chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
11/2 cups chicken broth
3/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup lingonberry or red currant jam, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs and the milk; stir with a fork and let stand for 5 minutes. Put 3 tablespoons of the butter in a small skillet and let it melt over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, and caraway; season with salt and pepper. Saute until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Put the ground beef and pork in a large bowl. Add the sweated shallot mixture, egg, parsley, and dill; season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the milk out of the soaked bread crumbs, add the bread to the meat mixture, and mix well using your hands. Pinch off about 1/2 cup worth of the meat mixture and roll it around in your moistened hands to shape it into a cue ball-sized meatball. Continue forming the meatballs and putting them on a platter; there should be about 20 meatballs.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over moderate heat. When the foam starts to subside, add the meatballs in batches so you don't overcrowd the pan. Saute the meatballs until well-browned on all sides, about 7 minutes total. Remove the meatballs to a platter lined with paper towels as they are done.
  • Discard most of the fat from the skillet and return it to the heat. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and swirl it around to coat the pan. Sprinkle in the flour, and stir with a wooden spoon to dissolve into the fat. Pour in the chicken broth, and stir with a wooden spoon to loosen the bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer and stir until the liquid is reduced and a sauce starts to form; season with salt and pepper. Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream. Return the meatballs to the sauce and stir in 1/4 cup of the lingonberry jam until combined. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly and the meatballs are heated through, about 15 to 20 minutes. Shower with chopped parsley and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve the Swedish meatballs with additional lingonberry jam on the side.

MEATBALLS W/ STRAWBERRY JELLY SAUCE



Meatballs w/ Strawberry Jelly Sauce image

I actually made meatballs for the first time once, then found I had no prego! SO I used strawberry jelly instead. What I was thinking, I have no idea, but I'm glad I was THAT hungry or I would never have known how good it is!

Provided by Vallie

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb ground beef
1/2 cup Italian style breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon garlic salt or 2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 egg white (you can use the yolk too if you're lazy)
2 cups strawberry jelly

Steps:

  • To make the meatballs------------.
  • First,'knead' the ground beef with your fist (this makes it more likely to form a ball, and less likely to come undone once it is so).
  • Next, in a large bowl or on a cutting board, mix together, ground beef, bread crumbs, egg white (or whole egg, whatever!), and garlic flavor of your choice.
  • Again, knead this and mix around to distribute ingredients as evenly as possible.
  • (This will be messy, trust me! But it's gonna be good) Ok, now, get out your favorite lil (or big) skillet, put those meatballs on there and cook those babys til they're a nice dark brown color (or they'll be red on the inside) Once you're done, take'em out, place them on a paper towel or two, cuz they'll be greasy!
  • Lastly, put that jelly in a nice lil microwaveable dishy thingy, and heat it up just enough so it's not jelly anymore, and warm, but not too hot.
  • Then dip those suckers til they're darn near covered and eat em up good!
  • Hope you like.

SWEET AND SOUR JELLY MEATBALLS AKA JELLY MEATBALLS



Sweet and Sour Jelly Meatballs AKA Jelly Meatballs image

...or Grapeballs or Those Meatball Things You Make! There are a lot of copies of this old favorite out there, and here's my version. It has a few more ingredients than the usual, but they make these tasty tidbits even more incredibly delicious!

Provided by Julesong

Categories     Berries

Time 4h5m

Yield 10-12 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (14 ounce) jar chili sauce (like Heinz)
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (32 ounce) jar grape jelly
1 (7 ounce) can chopped mild green chilies ((4 ounce can can be used too, but I like 7))
3 tablespoons dried onion flakes
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon of your favorite curry powder, to taste
1/2 teaspoon dried ancho chile powder
1/4 teaspoon dried chipotle powder, to taste (optional)
2 lbs pre-cooked frozen meatballs (I prefer the ones from Ikea)

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients but meatballs into the crockpot and mix well.
  • Add the meatballs and stir to coat well.
  • Put the crockpot on low and let cook for 4 hours on low (if you use thawed meatballs, it'll only take a couple of hours in the crockpot, instead).
  • Serve, standing back so you don't get trampled by the rush of the crowd.
  • Note: We've tried other preserves and jam than grape jelly, but the sauce simply didn't taste as good; we're sticking with plain, old grape jelly from now on and will be happy with it. Also, you can use Lil Smokies or sliced smoked sausage instead of the meatballs - a lot of folks use the same sauce for either and both ways are tasty! :)
  • Note 2: the above makes a lot of sauce, a good deal of which will be left over when the meatballs have been eaten. I've found that having a *lot* of sauce is of real benefit when making meatballs in the crockpot - the meat remains nice and moist.

Tips:

  • Choose the right meatballs. Frozen or pre-cooked meatballs can be used for convenience, but fresh, homemade meatballs will yield the best results.
  • Brown the meatballs thoroughly. This will help to develop their flavor and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Use a good quality strawberry jelly. A high-quality jelly will have a more intense flavor and will not be too sweet.
  • Simmer the meatballs in the jelly sauce for at least 15 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the meatballs to become tender.
  • Serve the meatballs with rice, mashed potatoes, or egg noodles. These dishes will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Meatballs with strawberry jelly sauce is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet and savory flavor, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or family gathering. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give meatballs with strawberry jelly sauce a try!
