>>213181022Arguably every person on earth with the goal of frying meat has had the idea of rolling it into a ball. The thing differentiating the different recipes is meat mixture, size and the side dishes.
I actually had greek meatballs once, because I missed swedish food touristing greece as a kid and I wanted something familiar. I didn't even finish the plate. Not necessarily because it was bad but it wasn't the kind of meatballs I like, they were big as fuck
I don't know if swedish meatballs beats out köfte in an epic meatball rap battle but they're different things. Swedish meatballs might have a bigger presence /int/ernationally speaking because of IKEA but it wouldn't surprise me if they made them more like köfte in turkey for example
