Vegetarian Meatballs + Nordic Christmas — Green Kitchen Stories
This yr we have fun 10 years of writing recipes on this weblog and kind of yearly we’ve got shared just a few Christmas impressed recipes. However we’ve got by no means actually dug into a few of the extra conventional Nordic Christmas meals. Most likely as a result of probably the most basic meals throughout Christmas over listed below are meatballs, pickled herring, pork ribs, ham and a heavy grated potato, anchovies and cream dish referred to as Jansons Temptation. Mainly as removed from plant based mostly as you will get 🙂
As a substitute we’ve got centered on mushroom loaves, stuffed cabbage parcels, saffron falafels, kale salads, vegan hasselback potatoes and brussels sprouts recipes.
However when Fazer requested us to create just a few Nordic Christmas recipes with their new oat product referred to as Yosa Oat Block, we took the chance to mess around with old-school recipes, utilizing their product as a substitute of meat. Yosa Oat Block is protein-rich, vegan and appears and feels loads like tofu however is made purely from nordic oats as a substitute of soy, with added pea protein. It’s harvested, produced and bought right here in Scandinavia and we actually take pleasure in utilizing it. It is extremely agency and works properly to fry, grate, pickle, grill and slice. It is solely accessible within the nordic nations in the mean time, so if you cannot discover it you may exchange it with agency tofu in these recipes
We blended the Oat Block into meatballs, sliced it into ribs, pickled it in a creamy mustard dressing and grated it as a substitute of anchovies right into a Jansons Temptation dish. We’re sharing two of the recipes right here and two extra on Fazer’s website (in Swedish).

The vegetarian meatballs are fast and simple to make, get their taste from mushrooms and have a lightness to them that we love. Since we fry mushroom and onion first, they solely want a fast flip within the pan to get some colour.
Our Christmas ribs aren’t that conventional however scrumptious however and so they look actually intriguing as a plant based mostly choice on the Christmas desk. We make the candy and sticky glaze from dried apricots, orange juice, chili and saffron and it’s so good! We use oat block slices as a substitute of ribs that we fry to present them some colour after which rub in glaze and roast.

Hope you benefit from the recipe and keep tuned as we might be again subsequent week with extra recipes for the vacations!
