Norske Kjøttkaker, Norwegian Meatballs image

"Kjøttkaker" is on every Norwegian menu. I do not use a recipe, so mine taste a little different every time. I wrote down the following recipe yesterday, and the whole family agreed that these "Kjøttkaker" rocks. Note to Nyteglori: Tangy sauce will make it something else. Authentic Norwegian Meatballs have brown gravy .

Time 1h10m

Yield 12-14 meatballs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb ground sirloin
1/2-1 medium onion
1 egg
1/3 cup Italian style breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 -3 tablespoons milk
1/4 cup butter
2 (1 ounce) packages beef gravy

Steps:

  • Chop the onions in a foodproccesor.
  • Add all the other ingredients, except the butter and gravy. Pulse until mixed together. You can also do this by hand.
  • Shape 12-14 meatballs and fry them in a frying pan in 1/2 stick of butter over medium heat.
  • Make the gravy according to package directions. I use McCormick Brown Gravy, Mushroom Gravy or Onion Gravy.
  • When the meatballs are nice and brown, add them to the gravy and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Serve with boiled potatoes and vegetables.
