Recipe - Seriously Amazing Swedish Meatballs in Brown Gravy

My favorite recipe for Swedish meatballs nuzzled in a simple yet creamy brown gravy! Just like IKEA but only better. It�s so good you�ll wanna slurp it through a straw!

YIELD: 5-7 PEOPLE (MAKES 18-22 MEATBALLS)

INGREDIENTS:

1 small onion, finely chopped
5 tablespoons butter
2 slices of bread (torn into small pieces)
3 tablespoons milk
1 � pound lean ground beef
1 large egg

1 teaspoon salt + � teaspoon black pepper
� teaspoon ground nutmeg
� teaspoon EACH ground all spice AND garlic powder
1 tablespoon EACH oil AND worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons flour
1 � cup beef or chicken broth (low sodium if possible)
� cup sour cream
2 teaspoons mustard
buttered egg noodles or mashed potatoes for serving

DIRECTIONS:

1. In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the onions and allow them to soften and become translucent, about 3-5 minutes. Remove to a medium bowl and allow them to cool.
2. In a small bowl, pour the milk over the bread and press down with a spoon or your fingers so that the bread soaks up all the milk, let sit 5 minutes.
3. When the onions have cooled, add the ground beef, bread mixture, an egg, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and all spice to the bowl and mix until just combined. Don�t overmix the meat as it will result in tough meatballs. Shape into 18-22 meatballs that are about 1- 1 � inch in diameter.
