Dozens of places have been sharing top secret recipes including McDonalds Sausage & Egg McMuffin to Doubletree’s Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe and Disney’s Grilled Cheese recipe. IKEA now announced their recipe for their famous Swedish Meatballs, revealing how people can recreate the much-loved dish in six simple steps. IKEA is challenging fans to make some delicious meatballs themselves, a feat which is usually left for their furniture.
IKEA Meatball Ingredients
Serves 4
- 1.1 pound of beef mince
- 0.6 pound of pork mince
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 1 clove of garlic (crushed or minced)
- 3.5 ounces of breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 5 tablespoons of whole milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the cream sauce
- A dash of oil
- 8 teaspoons of butter
- 8 teaspoons of plain flour
- 5 ounces of vegetable stock
- 5 ounces of beef stock
- 5 ounces of thick double cream
- 2 teaspoons of soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard
PREPARATION
For the meatballs
1. Combine beef and pork mince and mix thoroughly to break up any lumps. Add finely chopped onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg and mix. Add milk and season well with salt and pepper.
2. Shape mixture into small, round balls. Place on a clean plate, cover and store in the fridge for 2 hours (to help them hold their shape whilst cooking).
3. In a frying pan, heat oil on medium heat. When hot, gently add your meatballs and brown on all sides.
4. When browned, add to an ovenproof dish and cover. Place in a hot oven (180°C or 160°C fan) and cook for a further 30 minutes.
Swedish cream sauce
5. In frying pan, melt 40g of butter. Whisk in 40g of plain and continue cooking, stirring continuously, for 2 minutes, allowing the flour to cook through. Add 150ml of vegetable stock and 150ml of beef stock and continue to stir. Add 150ml thick double cream, 2 teaspoons of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer and allow the sauce to thicken. Continue to stir.
6. When ready to eat, serve with your favorite potatoes – either creamy mash or mini new boiled potatoes.
