Ingredients
(4–6 servings)
500 g (18 oz) ground (minced) beef/pork mixture
250 ml (1¼ cup) milk
75 g (¾ cup) white breadcrumbs
1 egg
1 onion
salt, white pepper
ground allspice
Preparation
Finely dice the onion and sauté gently in a little butter without
browning. Soak the breadcrumbs in milk. Blend the ground meat,
preferably in a food processor, with the onion, egg, milk/breadcrumb
mixture and the spices to the proper consistency and taste. Add a little
water if the mixture feels too firm. Check the taste by test-frying one
meatball. Then shape small meatballs with the aid of two spoons and
place on water-rinsed plates. Brown a generous pat of butter in a frying
pan, and when it ‘goes quiet’ place the meatballs in the pan and let
them brown on all sides. Shake the frying pan often. Serve with potato
purée or boiled potatoes and raw stirred lingonberries.
