Lemon meatballs - Citronköttbullar

LEMON MEATBALLS
Citronköttbullar

This is particularly good with pasta! Almost like Lady and the Tramp …

4 servings

1 small onion
1 garlic clove
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
2 tablespoons finely chopped leafy parsley
grated zest from 1 lemon
1/3 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
some flour to coat the meatballs
butter or margarine for frying
salt, white pepper

Gravy:
3 rounded tablespoons dry white wine
3 rounded tablespoons to 1/3 cup water
fresh juice from ½ lemon
1 teaspoon veal bouillon
1 tablespoon butter or margarine

For serving:
pasta of your choice


Finely chop onion and garlic and mix with ground beef, egg, parsley, lemon zest, Parmesan and some salt and pepper. Roll into large meatballs and coat them with flour (shake off excess flour) and fry them until nicely coloured. Pour wine, water and veal bouillon in the pan, cover and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until meatballs are done. Stir in the fat.

Serve with pasta and a salad.

Enjoy!
