Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Ground pork
- 250 g Ground beef
- 1 medium Onion, finely grated
- 1 Egg
- 50 g All-purpose flour
- 100 ml Milk
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Ground black pepper
- 30 g Butter
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, ground beef, grated onion, and egg.
Add the flour, milk, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined and the mixture is smooth and slightly sticky.
Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the flour to absorb the liquid and help bind the meatballs.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter and vegetable oil.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the meat mixture and form them into oval-shaped meatballs about the size of a golf ball.
Place the meatballs into the skillet in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
Remove the cooked frikadeller from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Repeat the process until all the meatballs are cooked.
Serve warm with your choice of sides, such as boiled potatoes, gravy, or a tangy cucumber salad.
