Swedish Meatballs

Ingredients

• 500 g (18 oz) ground beef
• 500 g (18 oz) ground pork
• 5 dl (2 1/2 cup) milk
• 3 dl (1 1/2 cup) white breadcrumbs
• 2 eggs
• 1 onion

Batter

1. Soak the breadcrumbs in the milk for about 10 minutes.
2. Blend the ground meats together.
3. Finely mince the onion and mix into the meat together with eggs and spices.
4. Blend in the milk/breadcrumb mixture.
5. Shape small meatballs with the aid of two spoons and place on water-rinsed plates.

Frying

1. Brown a generous pat of butter in a frying pan, and when it ``goes quiet'' place the meatballs (about 7 at a time) in the pan and let them brown on all sides.
2. Put the meatballs aside until they are all browned. Mix a little water into the pan to make a broth. Put meatballs back in pan and let slowly cook until done, about 10 minutes.
