This is an updated version of my Danish grandmother's recipe. My Danish grandfather called it Danish Turkey, because we always had it on holidays. Goes well with small red new potatoes and dill weed
Ingredients
- 2 lbs lean ground beef or pork (I use 3 parts beef to 1 part pork) shopping list
- 1/2 onion shopping list
- 3-4 slices bread (dill rye is good) shopping list
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper shopping list
- 4 tablespoons flour shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon allspice (or more if you like) shopping list
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 3/4 cup milk shopping list
How to make it
- use the metal blade in food processor bowl.
- Tear bread into pieces and process to make soft crumbs.
- Process onion.
- Add milk, egg, flour, and seasonings and process until well mixed.
- Distribute half of the meat over mixture and process 5 seconds.
- Add remaining meat and process until well-mixed.
- With wet hands, form meatballs.
- Brown in margarine or shortening until well-browned over medium heat.
- Transfer to a 2 qt. casserole.
- Add 1/4 cup flour to drippings in pan and brown well.
- Gradually add 2 cups water and small amount of Kitchen Bouquet and cook, stirring, until smooth and thickened.
- Season to taste .
- Pour over meatballs.
- Note--at this point this could be refrigerated overnight.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes.
- ENJOY!

So this is Frikadeller - sounds easy enough, and a good comfort food (how can you go wrong with meatballs and gravy?!)...sounds much like Swedish meatballs but with allspice instead of nutmeg - will have to try this. Thanks for sharing it, Chrispf!
