Swedish Meatballs with Creamy Gravy

• Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs in batches (don’t overcrowd the pan) and fry them for about 5-7 minutes, turning them frequently until they are golden brown on all sides and cooked through.
• Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set them aside.

4. Make the Gravy:

• In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for about 1-2 minutes to make a roux (it should turn a light golden color).
• Slowly add the beef broth while whisking to avoid lumps. Stir in the soy sauce for added depth of flavor. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 3-4 minutes until it thickens.
• Add the heavy cream to the gravy and stir until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Combine Meatballs and Gravy:

• Return the cooked meatballs to the skillet with the gravy. Simmer them in the gravy for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the meatballs to heat through.

6. Serve:

• Serve the Swedish meatballs hot, spooning the creamy gravy over the top. They’re perfect with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or even rice, and a side of lingonberry jam for a traditional touch.

These Swedish Meatballs with Creamy Gravy are rich, flavorful, and comforting. The tender meatballs paired with the creamy gravy create a deliciously indulgent dish that’s perfect for family dinners or a cozy meal. Enjoy!
