Recipe Instructions:

  1. Mix the first 7 ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground hamburger, egg, finely grated carrots, diced potatoes, diced onions, and any desired seasonings. Mix until well incorporated.

  2. Shape into Meatballs: Roll the meat mixture into 1-inch balls. Pro tip: Keep your hands slightly damp to prevent sticking. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the meatballs until golden on all sides. Be attentive to avoid burning. Once browned, transfer the meatballs to a greased 9×13-inch baking pan.

  3. Prepare the Sauce: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Gradually add flour, stirring continuously until a smooth paste forms. Slowly pour in the milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Once the flour has dissolved into the milk, add the can of cream of mushroom soup. Stir until the sauce is smooth and heated through.

  4. Assemble and Bake: Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the meatballs in the baking pan. Ensure all meatballs are coated generously. Preheat your oven to 325Β°F (163Β°C). Bake the meatballs uncovered for approximately 30 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the meatballs are cooked through.

  5. Add the Finishing Touch: Once out of the oven, sprinkle the top with shredded cheese while it’s still warm. Allow the cheese to melt slightly, enhancing the dish’s savory goodness.

Serve these delightful Swedish meatballs casserole hot, straight from the oven, and watch as they disappear within moments. Whether for a cozy family dinner or a festive potluck, Auntie Lori’s recipe is sure to become a beloved favorite, cherished and passed down for generations to come. Enjoy the taste of Scandinavia, right in your own kitchen! πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ͺ🍽️
