Ingredients

• 400g Smörgåsbord Meatballs
• 25g Unsalted Butter
• 500ml Brown Chicken Stock
• 200g Chestnut Mushrooms, washed and quartered
• 2 tbsp Chopped Parsley
• Tagliatelle

Method

  • Pre-roast the meatballs: Heat the butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Gently roast the meatballs until golden-brown, then remove and set aside.
  • Sauté the mushrooms: In the same pan, add the mushrooms and cook until soft and lightly browned.
  • Simmer the sauce: Pour in the chicken stock, return the meatballs, and simmer for about 20 minutes. Season to taste, then add the fresh parsley. The sauce should remain silky and not too reduced — perfect for coating the pasta.
  • Serve and enjoy: Toss with tagliatelle and serve immediately. A simple, hearty meal with layers of flavour and comfort.
