A very good friend passed this recipe along to me recently. I have read that the German immigrants brought this to America with them in the form of Hamburg steak, which was Americanized to hamburger. So this is a German hamburger. Photo: http://www.bavariankitchen.com/

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 brotchen (german rolls - or you may substitute it with 2 slices of white bread)
2 onions
1 lb hamburger
1 egg
salt, pepper, paprika to taste
1/4 c oil

Steps:

1. In a small bowl, soak the roll or bread in cold water. Peel the onion and dice it fine.
2. Squeeze out the bread and add it along with the onion to the hamburger meat. Add the egg, season with the spices to taste.
3. With wet hands form four meat patties. Heat the oil in a large skillet and fry the meat patties on both sides, about 10 minutes or until meat is done.

Tips:

Use a combination of ground beef and pork for the best flavor and texture.
Soak the bread in milk before adding it to the meat mixture. This will help to bind the ingredients together and make the patties more tender.
Season the meat mixture generously with salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to flavor the patties throughout.
Form the meat mixture into patties that are about 1-inch thick. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
Pan-fry the patties over medium heat until they are cooked through. This will take about 3-4 minutes per side.
Serve the frikadellen with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, or green beans.

Conclusion:

Frikadellen are a delicious and versatile German dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a new recipe to try, give frikadellen a try. You won't be disappointed!
