Swedish Meatballs with Creamy Gravy

Ingredients

For the Meatballs
• 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
• 1 lb ground pork
• ½ medium onion, finely grated
• 2 tsp salt
• ½ tsp white pepper (or black pepper)
• 1 cup dry baguette, torn into small pieces
• ½ cup milk
• 1 egg
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp oil

For the Creamy Gravy
• 3 tbsp butter
• 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 3 cups beef broth
• 1 cup heavy cream or half & half
• 2 tsp soy sauce
• Salt and white pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Tear the baguette into small pieces and soak in the milk for about 10 minutes. Mash until it forms a soft paste.
2. Add the ground beef, ground pork, grated onion, soaked bread, salt, white pepper, and egg to a large bowl. Gently mix until just combined.
3. Roll the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch each.
4. Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, brown the meatballs on all sides. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
5. If there’s excess grease in the skillet, carefully pour most of it out, leaving the browned bits behind. Add the butter, then whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute.
6. Slowly whisk in the beef broth until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream and soy sauce. Season with salt and white pepper to taste and simmer until the gravy begins to thicken.
7. Return the meatballs to the skillet and simmer in the creamy gravy for 5–6 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
