Elva's Swedish Meatballs Sma Kottbullar
Simply succulent! A great dish that bird's dutch/german mom would make for me when i was growing up. It's overlooked sometimes how recipes are an heirloom of our family heritage. I'm glad she gave me this recipe to remember her with. For chef #107583's lighter, healthier version, try recipe #279517
