Steps:

• To make the sauce, put the lingonberries or cranberries into a heavy bottomed saucepan with about 100 to 120 mls of water, the lemon juice and zest & bring to the boil.

• Add the beef, veal, pork, and onion-garlic mixture to the bread-crumb mixture and gently mix with your impeccably clean hands. Add the eggs, nutmeg, salt and pepper, and again gently combine everything with your impeccably clean hands.
• Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for a couple of hours.
• Shape the mixture into uniform 2/3-inch balls, wetting your hands with water so the meat won't stick to them. Arrange the meatballs on a baking sheet in one layer so they do not touch each other. Let the meatballs stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Melt the remaining butter in a sauté pan or skillet over moderate heat.
