For a simple tasty meal try this recipe for Swedish meatballs, served with a green salad. Ingredients:

8 ounces ground beef |
8 ounces ground pork |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly ground |
green salad, to serve |
Directions:
1. Set the breadcrumbs to soak in the cream in a bowl.
2. Heat 1/2oz of butter in a frying pan, add in the onion and fry it, stirring now and then, until golden.
3. Place the minced beef, pork and veal in a mixing bowl. Break in the egg and add the salt, pepper and freshly ground nutmeg followed by the soaked breadcrumbs.
4. Mix together, first with a spoon and then with your hands.
5. Add in the fried onion, mixing thoroughly.
6. Shape the mince mixture into ping-pong sized meatballs.
