Vegan Swedish Meatballs
Vegan mince is a convenient and tasty alternative for making Swedish meatballs. Easy recipe that is ready in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 pound vegan mince (for ex beyond meat)
- 1 pcs yellow onion/shallot
- 1 tablespoon vegan butter
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black or white pepper
- ½ teaspoon allspice
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
For the sauce
- 1 cup plant-based cream
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable stock (reduced)
- 2 tablespoon parsley for decorating
Instructions
- Start by peeling and chopping your onion into tiny pieces. Fry the onion in a teaspoon of butter so it softens and browns just a bit.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the vegan mince, onion, salt, pepper, allspice, and soy sauce. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
- Roll the mixture into balls using your hands and set aside. In a large skillet, melt the vegan butter over medium heat. Add the meatballs to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes, shaking the skillet occasionally to ensure even browning. Once the meatballs are browned, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, pour in the plant-based cream, soy sauce, black pepper, and reduced vegetable stock. Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer. Return the meatballs to the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the meatballs are cooked through.
- Once the meatballs are cooked and the sauce has thickened, remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
The amount makes 14 mid-sized meatballs.
Serve the Swedish way with mashed potatoes/boiled potatoes, lingonberry jam and pressed cucumbers.
