Easy Swedish Meatballs in Cream Sauce

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and then add in the noodles to cook, about 8-10 minutes. Drain when cooked al dente.

Step 2

If you decide to use frozen meatballs, then first begin by thawing them a little. Place them on a plate and microwave for 75 seconds, then flip them over and microwave for 75 more seconds. If you use fresh meatballs, then just begin making the sauce.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Then, whisk in the flour.

Step 4

Pour in the beef broth beginning with 3 cups. If you need additional liquid to loosen it up, feel free to add an extra 1/4 cup. While you are adding the broth, make sure to be continuously whisking. Cook for 2-3 minutes over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Next, add in the sour cream and mix that around until it's incorporated. Add in the meatballs and then reduce the temperature to low. Allow them to simmer, about 5-7 minutes. Add in salt and pepper to taste.

Step 6

Serve meatballs over a bed of cooked egg noodles and garnish with parsley!
