• 准备时间: 20 minutes
• 总时间: 50 minutes

配料

1 tablespoon butter

3 tablespoons onions, grated

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1 1/2 cups milk

1/2 lb ground beef

1/2 lb ground pork

1/2 lb ground veal

1 egg

1/8 teaspoon ground allspice

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon white pepper

butter or oil

pan juices

1 tablespoon flour

3/4 cup cream (whole milk works in a pinch)

salt

white pepper

步骤

Melt butter in a skillet.

Saute onions in the butter until golden.

Soak the bread crumbs in the milk.

To the bread mixture, add the meats, egg, onion, allspice, salt, and pepper. Mix until a smooth texture is achieved.

Chill mix for an hour or so, to firm it up.

Form mix into meatballs, using 1-2 tablespoons of meat per ball. (these should be smaller than a golf ball). If you are making these on a warm day, you might want to chill the formed balls again, so that you don't get flat sides when you fry them.

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat.

Melt a small amount of butter (traditional) or oil in the pan.

Add enough meatballs to fill the pan very loosely.

Shake the pan as you fry the balls, to keep the round shape as they cook. Continue to cook until they are evenly brown on all sides.

Remove each batch to a warm platter in the oven, as you fry the rest.

If you wish to make the gravy, deglaze the pan with a little water after each batch, and reserve the resulting drippings in a bowl.

For the gravy:.

When all of the meatballs have been fried, mix the flour and cream (or milk), and add to the reserved pan drippings in the skillet.

Simmer for 10 minutes.

If the mixture is too thick, add a bit of cream (or milk) to thin, then taste and season with salt and/or pepper as needed.

Pour gravy over warm meatballs and serve with boiled potatoes and lingonberry sauce.
