Hi, Swedish meatballs are simple, just go to sweden and make them the same as you do at home, and the swedish Baltic country people will enjoy the difference, did you ever try the Finnish bread, It's like pizza without toppings, kindof boring, but if it's in the company of wonderful Finnish people you'll finnish it off and enjoy the company, a tip on cooking, invite the people and let them help you do it their way.

1 2/3 cups evaporated milk
2/3 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon allspice
Dash pepper
1 pound ground round
2 teaspoons butter

1 tablespoon lemon juice
DIRECTIONS
Combine 2/3 cup evaporated milk, onion, crumbs, salt, allspice and pepper. Add meat; mix well, chill. Shape meat mixture into 1-in. balls. In large skillet, brown meatballs in butter. Dissolve bouillon cubes in boiling water; pour over meatballs and bring to boil over medium heat. Cover; simmer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, blend together cold water and flour. Remove meatballs from skillet, skim fat from pan juices and reserve juices. Stir 1 cup evaporated milk and flour/water mixture into pan juices in skillet; cook, uncovered, over low heat, stirring until sauce thickens. Return meatballs to skillet. Stir in lemon juice. Serve with cooked noodles that have been tossed with poppy seeds and butter.
Follow ATL Girl's recipe. Swedish meatballs do NOT have sauce. They should ideally be made with reindeer meat, but I suppose that may be difficult to come by outside of Scandinavia and Russia.

ATL girls recipe is "Spot-On"..... a very authentic recipe, right down to the Nutmeg...but time consuming.
On the other hand, Ikea sells both the meatballs and gravey packs for dirt cheap and they arent half bad!
