Frikadeller Recipe
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

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!
