Meatballs for the People

Book excerpt: On a regular day, Chinese, English and German can be heard spoken in this much-loved Stockholm restaurant; tourists and bearded södermalmare discuss whether to choose the classic Swedish meatballs or one of the specials, such as wild boar meatballs, whether the sides should be mashed potatoes, lingonberries and brown sauce or mushroom risotto. But one thing is certain: no one is thinking about any lunch other than just meatballs. Dive into these mouth-watering pages to discover how to make the perfect Swedish meatball, and then read on to uncover a whole host of meatball recipes, from pike to pork, or from reindeer to shrimp, and not forgetting a range of veggie delights.
