i have also been to IKEA and had the meatballs. i do not live near an IKEA and i am now craving them. my very picky family even ate them when i bought a package of the mix at the store. now i am again not near a store and without a package of mix. i heard somewhere that the sauce had beef gravy, this is the only place i could find the ratio. thanks so much for posting this, it will keep my husband from driving 5 hours to get to a store just so i can eat and then spend what is left of his paycheck.

    Make sure you use dry bread crumbs and not fresh. I did and it was hard to form the meatballs.

    I have tried to make Swedish meatballs at home, and it was okay, but when I went to IKEA and tried their version, it was outstanding! Very tender, yummy with the cream sauce. The lingonberry jam and boiled potatoes are a must as they complement the meatballs very well. This is a dish I want to eat again and again. The Swedish food that I sampled at IKEA was very tasty. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.
