Begin by soaking the gluten-free bread slices in milk until softened, about 5 minutes. Once softened, gently squeeze out any excess milk and crumble the bread into a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the onion and parsley. Add them to the mixing bowl along with the soaked bread.
Add the ground beef, ground pork, egg, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, black pepper, and gluten-free breadcrumbs to the mixing bowl.
Using clean hands, mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the Frikadellen tender.
Divide the meat mixture evenly into 8 portions and shape each portion into a patty, approximately 2 cm thick.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Fry the Frikadellen for 6-8 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should read 70Β°C/160Β°F).
Remove the cooked Frikadellen from the skillet and let them rest on a plate lined with paper towels for a minute or two.
Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, or a green salad. Enjoy!
