Re: Swedish meatballs

It could use tofu instead of soy meat.

Re: Swedish meatballs

Sorry, no recipe - but over here in the UK, Quorn make Swedish 'meat'balls. Don't know if you can get them where you are?

Re: Swedish meatballs

Could I use a recipe, but use soy meat instead of beef?

Re: Swedish meatballs

SWEDISH "MEATBALLS"

6 slices whole wheat bread, toasted
1/2 C. (120 ml) unsweetened soymilk

2 lbs. (900g) Gimme Lean Sausage flavor
2/3 C. (168 ml) chopped onions
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 t. ground allspice
1/4 t. ground nutmeg
1/4 t. ground cardamom
1 t. dried dill weed or 1 T. fresh dill, chopped
1 t. salt
1/4 t. ground cayenne pepper

6 T. extra virgin olive oil

Sauce
1 qt. (1 liter) unsweetened soymilk
2 12.3-oz. ((340g) aseptic packages of soft silken tofu
2 t. salt
1 t. ground black pepper
1 T. light miso
2 t. Tamari
Pinch of dill weed
Dash of ground nutmeg

4 T. cornstarch
4 T. water

1. Break bread into pieces, put pieces into a bowl, and pour soymilk over them. Mix to moisten bread, and set aside.
2. In a large bowl combine Gimme Lean, onions, garlic, allspice, nutmeg, cardamom, dill weed, salt, and cayenne. Add soaked bread, and mix all ingredients by hand, squeezing through the fingers to break up and blend the Gimme Lean with the seasonings.
3. Form mixture into tiny meatballs about 1/2-inch (1 cm) in diameter, and put them on a platter. Put one third of the olive oil into a deep skillet, and heat oil. When hot add one third of the meatballs to the skillet, and brown on all sides. Remove to another platter lined with paper towels to drain.
4. Brown remaining meatballs in remaining oil, and drain on paper towels.

Sauce:

1. While meatballs are browning, prepare sauce. Put half the soymilk, silken tofu, salt, pepper, miso, Tamari, dill weed, and nutmeg into the blender. Blend on low speed for a few seconds; then switch to high for a few seconds. Transfer mixture to a large stockpot.
2. Add remaining half of sauce ingredients to blender and process. Add to stockpot.
3. When meatballs are fully browned, add to stockpot with sauce and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes to combine flavors. Serve over brown rice or baked potatoes. Serves 8 to 10.

NOTE: The sauce has a tendency to thicken when refrigerated overnight. When reheating, add a little soymilk or water to thin the sauce to desired consistency.




Maybe this would work?
