Swedish Meatball Noodle Bake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Lightly butter 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish; set aside. Heat 6-quart pot of water to boiling; add egg noodles, and cook 5 minutes. Noodles should still be firm through the middle. Drain, and set aside.
• While noodles are boiling, cook shallots and butter in 3-quart saucepan about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until shallots are soft. Stir in flour to make a roux; cook 60 seconds. Gradually stir in chicken broth, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth and all stock is mixed in. Heat to simmering, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in whipping cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Gradually whisk in the remaining milk and broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sauce has thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce to taste and remove from the heat.

• Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and swirl it around to coat the pan.
• Sprinkle in the flour, and stir with a wooden spoon to dissolve into the fat.
