Swedish Meatballs

• These take a while to roll into those little balls!
• 1 lb. ground beef or turkey
• 1/2 lb. ground pork
• 1/2 c finely minced onion
• 3/4 c bread crumbs
• 1 T minced parsley
• 1/2 t salt

• 1/8 t allspice
• 1/8 t ginger
• 1/8 t nutmeg
• 1/4 c shortening

• 1 t paprika - not the smoked kind!
• salt & pepper to taste
• 2 c boiling water
• 3/4 c sour cream

1. Mix all ingredients above the ---- together very well.
2. Form into balls about the size of a walnut.
3. Brown in batches in hot fat (you can also bake these, 350 deg. for about 30 minute, but they flatten out quite a bit - for round meatballs, you've gotta fry 'em).
4. Remove browned meatballs to a platter.
5. Add flour, paprika, salt & pepper to skillet.
6. Stir until smooth, add boiling water and cook until smooth and thickened. Add sour cream. Return meatballs to gravy and cook about 15 minutes.
