Merhaba From Türkiye 👋

Meatball is the number one favorite of my family. And since I live in Türkiye making meatballs is my routine. In Turkish, we call it Köfte.

You may remember my previous Turkish Meatball Kofta with Cheesy Ember-Roasted Aubergine. That's one of the Turkish signature dishes where you can find some fancy restaurants.

Or my other Turkish meatball (Köfte) recipe;Köfte Kebabı / Turkish lamb Kofta (meatball) Kebab. All recipes are authentic Turkish recipes you are gonna fall in love with soon 😊

I and my kid also love to enjoy Indonesian meatballs calls "Bakso". Next time I will share my video recipe on how to make that Indonesian meatball too, Inshaallah.

Talking about this everybody's favorite, these few days we are craving something else. Out of our daily meatballs köfte, we are so in love with the famous Swedish meatballs with iconic gravy.

Yep, it's IKEA copycat meatball with that iconic gravy. When we visit IKEA store in our city, we never skip to sit down and enjoy the meal over there. One of the menus that we love to have is meatballs flush with tasty gravy, serve with mixed boiled vegetables as a side dish. I like to enjoy it with mashed potato, but my husband and kid love to have garlic bread instead. 

IKEA meatball menu

If you are my blog regular readers, you may notice that I love to copycat restaurant style into my kitchen. Just like this Kekiklim Tavuk menüsü / Creamy Penne Pasta with Thyme Chicken, I copied from one of the famous franchise restaurants here in Turkey. 

For other restaurant copycat recipes, you can visit category copycat recipes here.

The recipe for IKEA’s meatballs is actually quite easy to make. The original recipe uses minced beef and pork, but here I make a helal version by using all beef minced meat.

Other ingredients are normally used for meatball eg. breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Swedish style meatballs used milk and also egg.

For the iconic IKEA gravy ingredients are butter, flour, cream, stock, soy sauce, and dijon mustard.

Here I make a simple video on how to cook and prepare this delicious meatball dish. I serve my meatball with rigatoni pasta as my family request. You serve it with mashed or fried potato or simply with bread.

In a mixing bowl combine beef mince and mix thoroughly to break up any lumps. Add finely chopped onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, and milk. Add salt and pepper, mix it through until everything is well combined.

Check the taste by pinching the batter a little and frying it. Add salt pepper as needed.

Just let the meatballs sit at room temperature before keeping them in a plastic ziplock and keeping them in the freezer. You can cook in the preheated oven whenever you are ready to serve. Cook a preheated oven at  180℃ or 160°C fans for about 20-30 minutes no need to defrost it 1st.

Make the gravy

In a saucepan, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and continue cooking, stirring continuously, for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flour to cook through. Add all the chicken/ vegetable stock, stirring to avoid lump. 

Then add the double cream and continue to stir to prevent any lump.

Season with soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer and allow the sauce to thicken. Add black pepper (optional) if needed. Continue to stir.

Make the pasta

Boil enough water in a big pan, add salt. After rolling boiling cook in your pasta, add also a half teaspoon of turmeric powder (optional). Cook according to packet direction until aldente.

Drain well and toss with olive oil.
