Swedish Meatballs

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil (Divided)
  • 1 Onion
  • 1 Pound Ground Beef
  • 1 Pound Ground Pork
  • ½ Cup Panko
  • 2 Large Egg Yolks
  • ¼ Teaspoon Ground Allspice
  • ¼ Teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • Kosher Salt
  • Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Method

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until onions have become translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, Panko, egg yolks, allspice, nutmeg and cooked onion; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, stir until well combined. Roll the mixture into 1 1/4-to-1 1/2-inch meatballs, forming about 24 meatballs.
  3. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add meatballs, in batches, and cook until all sides are browned, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  4. Serve immediately
