Norwegian Meatballs
SUBMITTED BY:
Jeane Jenson
"These meatballs are a favorite around our area. On May 17, Norwegian Independence Day, many people serve them with a mashed rutabaga and potato dish. So this recipe is both delicious and very traditional."

DIRECTIONS
In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, bread crumbs, onion and seasonings. Let stand until crumbs absorb milk. Add meat; stir until well blended. Shape into 1-in. meatballs. Place on a greased jelly-roll pan. Bake at 400 degrees F until browned, about 18 minutes. Set aside.
For gravy, melt butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Saute onion until tender. Stir in flour and brown lightly. Slowly add broth; cook and stir until smooth and thickened. Blend in cream, cayenne pepper and white pepper. Gently stir in meatballs; heat through but do not boil.

This is very good, we like our meatballs a little more well done, so I started the sauce once the meatballs cooked for 20 minutes and that seemed to be perfect, I think it was probably about 30 minutes cooking time. The reason this is a 4 star instead of a 5 star is because my 2 year old grand daughter who loves meatballs didn't like these, she loved the gravy and noodles, but didn't care for the meat.

I made this last night. My family loved it -- said it was "something different" -- which is a good thing. I didn't have heavy cream though, so I used a little half'n'half and some cream cheese -sounds weird, but it's good.

Delicious! I made these for a cast party for a play about a Norwegian family. I didn't have any allspice, but added cloves. It still gave them that unique flavor. I also added part sour cream, part heavy cream instead of all heavy cream. Everyone loved them!

These were very, very yummy! I only had 2lbs ground beef, so I scaled everything. I didn't use allspice or ginger either. I added nutmeg, increased the flour to 4 tbsp and used evaporated milk for the sauce. It was very yummy on shell noodles!
