My BF and I decided to cook some swedish meatballs. We are from austria, it was his first go on meatballs, they were delicious!

1. The mashed potatoes looks a little bit to moisty for my taste. Other then that, looks great.

2. Meatballs should be smaller and the gravy should be brown but otherwise it looks good

3. Looks great! Major props that you didn’t leave out the pickles or the lingonberries.

4. The meatballs look delicious and the size is fine. Everything looks great, stop gatekeeping

5. Ser jättegott ut

6. You even brought the pickles and the gravy! Your BF doesn’t happen to be Swedish by any chance? It just looks so damn on point.

7. Servus!

   Ich mache es manchmal wenn wir haben Besuch aus Österreich und ich muss sagen dass ihr habt alles richtig gemacht 🙂

8. Looks better than what I am able to make! Well done 🙂

9. Vart fan är brunsåsen 😡🤬

10. Forbidden cum balls

11. Looks better than most versions I’ve seen here in sweden lmao

12. Needs to be fried a bit more 😍

13. Vem FAN la sarre på köttbullarna?

14. For a first try I would give this the highest score.

15. Personally I prefer mustard seed pickles for meatballs, but you do you!

16. Well done, not often people get our dish correct but this is very well made!

17. Gör smörgåsbord

18. For being a none Swede both of you, you have done a great work on the dish.

19. Big balls 😳

20. After all botched swedish meals I’ve seen on this sub. This, this I can get behind.
    We are almost religious about our food. This looks heavenly and your boyfriend should be proud

21. Great work!

    Two things I would note though:

    – They are a little on the big side I would say. Most swedes would make them pretty small. About the size you get at IKEA.

    – The gravy is a bit light in colour. Usually we add a bit of soy sauce to darken it a bit.

    All in all, looks amazing 🙂

22. Ich hoffe darauf, dass sie euch gefallen haben.

23. Looks good, now I kinda wanna make meatballs for myself

24. Looks nice, add a little bit of soy sauce to the sauce next time, just to make the brown sauce live up to it’s name.

25. Såsen ser ju dock lite för vit ut..
    Och ja, moset ser ut som en barnpuréspya!..

    Österrike levererar.. Adolf 2021..

26. I knew things were upside-down in Australia, but sideways in Austria?
    That’s something else!

27. Looks amazing! Def. Sweden-approved. You may enter.

28. Nice, put some more soy in that sauce to get that classic “brunsås” 👉👈🥺

29. You’re making us very proud, riktiga köttbullar!

30. The pickles are so fucking underrated.

31. What happened to that poor potatismos

32. Looks great. If you want to switch things around you can add green peas, cooked carrots or a mushroom sauce. A child variant is spagetti, meatballs and ketchup (possibly with mustard).

33. Fantastiskt 🙂

34. That potatismos looks awful, how did you mess it up so bad?

35. Recipe?

36. Looks more like SPERM BALLS.

37. Never had cum on my meatballs, is that a Austrian touch?

38. Oh! What spices did you use in the köttbullar? It looks great, but the mash looks a bit wet rather than fluffy (the key is a lot of cream and butter!)

39. It looks excellent!

40. Noice! Gotta try some meatballs made from roo tho, that and some rough potato mash (boil em in salted water, mash them with the skin on and make sure thers some larger bits left in (there are special potato mashers put there), serve with lingonberries and some pickles/salted cucumber and Swedish brown sauce. Delish!)

    Really happy to see people try our fairly bland kitchen, if you get a chance try some Swedish boar, deer, elk and bear, surprisingly nice imo!

41. This looks supremely fine, it’s easy to tell a lot of heart and hard work went into it. I’m ashamed in truth, because you’ve put more work into these meatballs than I do on average, haha!

42. cumballs😈

43. My advice to wanna be Swedes are to make the meatballs too large for one bite, but too small for two bites 🙂

44. Everything looks great except the gravy, it’s supposed to be brown!

45. Great to see pur friends down under appreciate our food! G’day!

46. What’s with the ball sauce? It should be brown not white

47. Cultural appropriation.

48. I feel at home looking at that! (I mean, sure, I AM at home, but now I FEEL it too)

49. Damn it’s perfect and so Swedish, join us here sometime in the near future 🙂

50. Potato mash looks a bit watery and brown sause is too bright. Other than that its legit!
