Mum’s Classic Swedish Meatballs

1. 1

   Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the onion in the melted butter until tender, 5 to 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Place the bread cubes in a bowl; pour 1/2 cup evaporated milk over the bread cubes. Set aside until the bread cubes absorb the milk.

3. 3

   Mix the ground beef, ground pork, cooked onion, bread cube mixture, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, nutmeg, allspice, salt, lemon pepper, and ground black pepper together in a large bowl. Shape the mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs.

4. 4

   Heat olive oil in the same skillet used for the onion over medium-high heat; cook the meatballs in the hot oil, turning with tongs, until all sides are browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour in the beef stock and simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the meatballs to a serving bowl, reserving the liquid in the skillet.

5. 5

   Remove 1 cup beef stock from the skillet; whisk the flour into the 1 cup stock until smooth. Pour the flour mixture back into the skillet, whisking until the mixture is smooth. Gradually whisk the remaining evaporated milk and sherry into the beef stock mixture. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the gravy is warmed and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour the gravy over the meatballs to serve.
