Meatballs

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meatball Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, bread crumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, cardamom, allspice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined but do not overmix.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

    Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little oil and cook the meatballs in batches until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Sauce (Optional)

    In the same skillet, you can create a simple sauce by adding beef broth and a bit of cream to the drippings. Simmer for a few minutes to combine flavors.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the meatballs with lingonberry sauce on the side or drizzled over the top.
