Danish Frikadeller Meatball Recipe
Ingredients
*1/2 pound of minced beef
*1/2 pound of minced pork
*1 cup of flour
*1/2 cup of oatmeal (breadcrumbs is another option)
*2 eggs
*1 minced onion
*1/4 teaspoon of pepper
*1 teaspoon of salt
*1 to 1 1/2 cup of milk
*allspice (optional)
*butter or margarine
Kitchen Tools
*bowl
*mixing spoon
*grater
*measuring cup
*measuring spoon
*non-stick frying pan
First Step is to make the fikadelle mixture
There is a little prepping to do which is great! A few things you will need to do is buy minced meat. If you choose to use breadcrumbs, you will either need to buy or make your own breadcrumbs. Also, you'll need to mince one onion with a grater. Once you have all of the ingredients you are ready to make the frikadelle mixture.
First, mix the beef and pork together in a bowl. Stir in milk, onion, and eggs. Add oatmeal or bread crumbs into the meat mixture. Sprinkle in flour, and knead well to mix. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and mix well. Some people enjoy the taste of allspice and it is optional. A tip is the frikadelle mixture gets better the more you mix the ingredients together. Also, the mixture should be very moist, but not dripping. If it is too moist, add more flour and use less milk.
Now you are ready to let the frikadelle mixture to rest for a 1/2 hour to an hour in the refrigerator. The mixture should be quite moist and soft. This makes it easier to form the shape of a meatball.
Second step is to fry the frikadelle
Place a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Melt a couple of table spoons of margarine or butter in the frying pan.
Now you are ready to shape the meatballs. A tip is to dip your large tablespoon into the melted margarine. Then, scoop the tablespoon into the bowl to form the meatball. A helpful trick is to take the tablespoon mixture and smoothen it against the wall of the bowl. The mixture in the spoon should look slightly flattened oval meatball about the size of a small egg when placed in the pan.
One-by-one place the oval flat shape frikadelle into the heated skillet. Don't put too many frikadeller in the pan at once and they should not be touching. Fry the meatball for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side until they are well-browned and no longer pink in the center. Also, it depends how big the meatball is on the pan and how hot your pan is too. If it is still pink, fry for 3 or more minutes. Then, remove the frikadelle to a separate platter.
If you have a more frikadelle mixture in the bowl, add more butter in the skillet and then fry another batch.
What to eat with Danish Frikadelle? In Danish homes, Frikadelle is eaten with Danish Red Cabbage (Rødkaal), Danish Cucumber Salad (Agurksalat), potatoes (kartofler) and brown gravy (sovs). If you make enough frikadeller, it is great as a left over food for Danish Smørrebrød the next day.
There are popular meatball variations in other countries such as in Germany it is known as Frikadellen too.
