🇸🇪 Sweden recipe
Köttbullar
The definitive Swedish comfort food, köttbullar are tender meatballs made from a blend of pork and beef mixed with bread soaked in cream, subtly spiced with allspice and nutmeg. They are pan-fried to a deep golden brown and bathed in a silky cream sauce, then served alongside lingonberry jam, creamy mashed potatoes, and pickled cucumber for the perfect balance of rich, sweet, and tangy.
