Kottbullar: Swedish Meatless Balls (Vegan)
- 3 -4 medium potatoes
- 1 vegetable bouillon cube
- 1 cup ground almonds (a coffee grinder works well for grinding nuts)
- 4 tablespoons ground flax seeds
- salt & pepper, to taste
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 4 -5 tablespoons olive oil or 4 -5 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Place potatoes in medium saucepan, cover with water, add vegetable cube, and boil until potatoes are soft.
- Drain water from potatoes (saving the water to make gravy), mash and let cool.
- In the meantime, heat oil in small frying pan, add onions and cook until they just start to brown.
- Place flax seed in small bowl, add 1/4 cup of hot water and let stand for about 10 minutes for flax seed to absorb the water.
- When the potatoes have cooled add the soaked flax seed and water, ground almonds, salt, pepper, and cooked onions.
- Mix together and roll into small balls.
- Heat olive oil in large fry pan; add the balls and brown nicely on all sides. Transfer the balls into a shallow cooking dish, and cook for approximately 3/4 hour at 350u0b0F.
- While the meat(less) balls are cooking, make a vegetarian gravy.
- Pour over the balls and continue cooking for an additional 20 minutes.
