For the Swedish Meatballs:
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 whole onion diced
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
For the Gravy:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 3/4 cups low-sodium beef broth
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until onions are translucent, about 2-3 minutes; set aside.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, bread crumbs, egg yolks, allspice, nutmeg and onion. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir mixture with a wooden spoon until well combined.
Use clean hands to roll the mixture into meatballs about 1 1/2-in in size (It should make about 20-24 meatballs).
For the gravy, melt butter in the skillet. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in beef broth and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
Stir in sour cream; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in meatballs and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through and thickened, about 8-10 minutes.
