Swedish Meatballs(Svenska Kottbullar) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 1/2 Tbsp. unsweetened bread crumbs
1/3 c. milk
1/3 c. thick cream
14 oz. ground meat
1 1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. white or black pepper
2 Tbsp. finely chopped and lightly browned or raw grated yellow onion
little butter

Preparation

Mix bread crumbs, milk and thick cream and let the mixture soak for approximately 10 minutes.
Mix ground meat with salt, white or black pepper and onion.
Add the bread crumb mixture. Stir until smooth but not too much or the fat will creep out and the mixture will become dry.
Form into small meatballs of uniform size.
Fry them in a little butter in a frying pan.
Lower the heat when the balls are well browned so that they have time to get thoroughly cooked.
Shake the pan now and then while frying so that the meatballs become round and evenly colored.
Makes 4 to 5 servings.
