Here’s a recipe of IKEA’s iconic meatballs from none other than IKEA themselves, right at home<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n Ingredients<\/strong> (for 4 servings):<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the meatballs: <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n For the cream sauce:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Procedure: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For the meatballs:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n First, combine the beef and pork until they’re well mixed and they don’t have any lumps. Then, add the onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, and egg in the bowl and mix well. Finally, add the milk and season the mixture well with salt and pepper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the mixture is finished, shape it into small, round balls. To help the balls retain shape while cooking, place them on a clean plate, cover them with plastic wrap, and store them in the fridge for 2 hours before cooking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When the meatballs are firm enough, it’s time to cook. On a pan above medium heat, add oil and when it’s hot, you may now gently add meatballs. Cook them until they’re brown on all sides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To ensure that it’s cooked well, once the meatballs are brown in color, transfer them to an ovenproof dish and cover. Then, place them in a hot oven (180\u00b0C conventional or 160\u00b0C fan) to cook for 30 minutes more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For the iconic Swedish cream sauce: <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n In a pan, melt the butter in a pan. Once melted, add the flour and stir for 2 minutes. While you’re stirring, you may add the beef and vegetable stock. Finally, add the double cream, soy sauce, and Dijon mustard. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow the sauce to thicken. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Assembling:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Place the meatballs on a plate, spoon a generous amount of sauce on top, and serve alongside potatoes prepared however you like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n First and foremost, it is pronounced as “ee-key-ah”<\/strong> in Sweden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n IKEA was founded in 1943 by Ingvar Kamprad; it started as a mail-order business before it became the giant ready-to-assemble furniture store that it is now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n IKEA <\/strong>stands for I<\/strong>ngvar K<\/strong>amprad (founder), E<\/strong>lmtaryd (where Kamprad grew up), and A<\/strong>gunnaryd (Kamprad’s hometown). Its iconic blue and yellow colors are taken from Sweden’s national colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n An average IKEA store is about 30,000 sqm. The first IKEA store, is located in \u00c4lmhult, Sweden, and has been turned into the IKEA Museum<\/a> just last June 2016. The biggest branch to date is also in Sweden (Stockholm) recorded at 680,000 sq ft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As of March 2016, there are already 384 IKEA stores in 48 countries<\/strong> with several locations in Europe, Middle East, USA, Canada and the Caribbean with branches all over Asia including Australia, China, India, Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong, South Korea, Japan, Indonesia, and Taiwan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now on to the more exciting stuff, the FOOD. Sweden is known for many things but their love for good food is something that Filipinos can relate to. That’s why most of IKEA’s stores have an in-house restaurant that sells a variety of freshly cooked meals and even desserts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Check out some of their bestsellers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Swedish meatball is called K\u00f6ttbullar and IKEA’s version of it is as famous as the actual store itself. It’s probably one of the top 3 reasons people actually go to IKEA stores for; they are cheap, easy to eat and delicious! It’s usually served with a side of steamed vegetables, the traditional lingonberry sauce and potatoes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In some locations like Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the potatoes have been replaced with French fries, while some serve mashed potatoes. Canada, among others, started offering vegetarian meatballs in 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The hotdogs are on everyone’s must eat list at IKEA for being super cheap. Let’s hope we can get them for P50 here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fried chicken wings are one of the staple bites at IKEA. Meanwhile in HK, they serve chicken legs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n IKEA shoppers are quite addicted to their soft serve ice cream. <\/strong>A soft-serve vendo machine pulls out a cone and do the swirling when you insert tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n IKEA has their own line of beers! Choose from a variety of brews ranging from lager beer to dark ales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more updates on everything trending and delicious with food, don\u2019t forget to follow our social media pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n View our website<\/a> We know you loved using the Booky app for discovering the newest places in your city.

Interesting fact<\/strong>: IKEA's founder is dyslexic, which is why each piece of furniture is named after proper words, not numbers.<\/strong> Living room items are often named after places in Sweden, bathroom furnishings are named after rivers and lakes. The company's most popular product is the Billy bookshelf<\/strong>.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
