Swedish Meatless Balls (Vegan)

Created by Dreamer_in_Ontario on October 27, 2011

3 to 4 medium potatoes
1 vegetable bouillon cube
1 cup ground almonds (you can grind almonds in a coffee grinder if you have one)
1/4 cup ground flax seeds

Step 1: Place potatoes in medium saucepan, cover with water, add vegetable cube, and boil until potatoes are soft.
Step 2: Drain water from potatoes (saving the water to make gravy), mash and let cool.
Step 3: In the meantime, heat oil in small frying pan, add onions and cook until they just start to brown.
Step 4: Place flax seed in small bowl, add ¼ cup of hot water and let stand for about 10 minutes for flax seed to absorb the water.
Step 5: When the mashed potatoes have cooled add the soaked flax seed and water, ground almonds, salt, pepper, and cooked onions; mix together and roll into small balls.
Step 6: Heat olive oil in large fry pan; add the balls and brown nicely on all sides.
Step 7: Transfer the balls into a shallow cooking dish, and cook for approximately ¾ hour at 350°F.
Step 8: While the meat(less) balls are cooking, make a vegetarian gravy, pour over the balls and continue cooking for an additional 20 minutes.
