Method
Peel the potatoes, cut them into chunks and boil them in salted water for 20 minutes, until soft.
Mix the beef and pork mince with the grated onion, the breadcrumbs soaked in 30 g of the milk, the egg, the allspice, salt and pepper.
Roll the mixture into small walnut-sized balls and fry them in half of the butter in a pan for 8 minutes, turning them, until browned and cooked through; lift them out onto a plate.
Stir the flour into the pan juices, then add the stock, the cream and the soy sauce and simmer for 5 minutes until it thickens into a gravy; return the meatballs to the pan.
Drain the potatoes and mash them with the rest of the butter and the remaining milk.
Serve the meatballs and gravy with the mash, the lingonberry jam and the sliced pickled cucumber.
