Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g ground beef
- 250 g ground pork
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic cloves
- 60 g almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon mustard (check for Paleo-friendliness)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil or ghee
Instructions
Peel and finely dice the onion.
Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, diced onion, minced garlic, almond flour, egg, parsley, mustard, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.
Use your hands or a large spoon to mix the ingredients together until well incorporated. Do not overmix, as this can make the meat patties tough.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a round, slightly flattened patty about 1-inch thick.
Heat the coconut oil or ghee in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the skillet is hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until a golden-brown crust forms and the patties are cooked through.
Remove the cooked Frikadellen from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve warm alongside a Paleo-friendly side dish like roasted vegetables, sauerkraut, or a fresh salad.
