Swedish Meatballs With Peas And Redcurrant Gravy

Ingredients

For the meatballs:
250g minced Beef
250g minced Pork
200g of frozen peas, defrosted
1 small onion, peeled and finely chopped
1 large egg, beaten
Rind of 1 lemon, finely grated
Dash of Worcestershire Sauce
50g of breadcrumbs
2 tbsp of chopped parsley
A good pinch of allspice (optional)
50g of butter
1 tbsp rapeseed oil
Sea salt and black pepper

For the sauce:
50g butter
50g plain flour
350ml of beef stock
1 tbsp redcurrant jelly
A pinch of grated nutmeg
A dash of Worcestershire Sauce
150ml sour cream
Sea salt and black pepper

Method

Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas Mark 5

Mix all of the meatball ingredients together, season well with sea salt and black pepper and combine well.

Shape the mixture into round balls the size of a golf ball. Heat a large non-stick frying pan, melt the butter with the oil and seal the meatballs slowly, in batches, place on a baking sheet and cook in the oven for 20 minutes. While the meatballs are cooking, heat the butter on a saucepan over a low heat, stir in the flour and cook until bubbling. Remove from the heat, whisk in the stock, redcurrant jelly, grated nutmeg, Worcestershire sauce and sea salt and black pepper and bring to the boil, stirring all the time and simmer for one minute until thickened. Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream, taste and season accordingly.

Remove the meatballs from the oven, place in a serving dish and pour over the sauce. Serve with plenty of boiled potatoes and extra redcurrant jelly.
