Which Fantasy/SciFi Character Are You?

Recipe: Finnish Meatballs
18 June 2003, 10:12 AM

I guess these would more commonly be known as Swedish Meatballs, but my Finnish mother taught me how to make 'em. :-) I made a few changes to em last night and they turned out wonderfully:

1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1/4 flour
1 tablespoon herbs, minced very fine. (I used a couple of sprigs each of oregano and thyme and one small spring of rosemary.)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Several grinds fresh black pepper
1 shallot, chopped fine

Mix the ground beef and egg first, then blend in the flour. Add all the rest of the ingredients and mix throughly. Form into small balls and place in a pan LIGHTLY coated with olive oil. Cook to doneness.

For the brown gravy, I use a prepackaged mix, but add a tablespoon of heavy cream to the final gravy. Serve with boiled red new potatoes and lingonberry preserves.
