200–300 ml (¾–1¼ cups) liquid, such as water, milk or cream
50 ml (¼ cup) dried bread crumbs
250 g (9 oz) ground beef
250 g (9 oz) ground pork
1 egg
1 small onion, finely chopped or grated
Salt
Pepper
Butter for frying
Combine the liquid and bread crumbs in a bowl, and let it sit for 7–8 minutes.
7–8 minutes
Mix in the ground beef, ground pork, egg, onion, salt, and pepper.
Shape the mixture into round meatballs, approximately 2–3 centimeters (1 inch) in diameter.
Pan fry the meatballs on medium heat in a frying pan with butter for approximately 3–5 minutes. Fry them on all sides until they are brown and not pink in the middle. Shaking the pan occasionally will help the meatballs cook evenly.
3–5 minutes
Serve them with mashed potatoes with a veal based brown sauce made with cream and lingonberry preserve or cranberry preserve.
