GERMAN HAMBURGERS (FRIKADELLEN)



German Hamburgers (Frikadellen) image

The original hamburger, these are served like a flattened meatball with some steamed string beans and salad. I also like to use this recipe to make Swedish meatballs (but omit the paprika). My Aunt in Hamburg, Germany taught me this recipe and I've been making them ever since. Serve with steamed string beans and tossed salad. Or serve on a Kaiser roll with lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumbers, finely sliced deep fried onions and curry ketchup.

FRIKADELLER (DANISH MEATBALLS)



Frikadeller (Danish Meatballs) image

This recipe comes straight from my mother-in-law in Denmark. It's a little labor-intensive, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be addicted! Serve warm with a brown sauce, small red boiled potatoes, and sweet and sour cabbage. Better still, double the batch and have enough the next day to slice and place on toast with mayonnaise (open-faced, of course, the Scandinavian way)!

Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ pound ground veal
½ pound ground pork
¼ cup milk, or as needed
¼ cup finely grated onion
1 egg
¼ cup bread crumbs, or as needed
¼ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup seltzer water
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup margarine

Steps:

  • Mix the veal and pork together in a bowl, and stir in the milk, onion, and egg. Mix the bread crumbs into the meat. Sprinkle in the flour, and knead well to mix. Stir in the seltzer water, season to taste with salt and pepper, and mix well. The mixture should be very moist, but not dripping.
  • Chill the meat mixture for 15 to 30 minutes in the refrigerator, to make the meatballs easier to form.
  • Heat the margarine in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • To form meatballs, scoop up about 2 1/2 tablespoons of meat mixture with a large spoon, and form the mixture into a slightly flattened, oval meatball about the size of a small egg. Place the meatballs into the heated skillet, and fry for about 15 minutes per side, until the meatballs are well-browned and no longer pink in the center.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

600 g ground beef
1 egg
1 roll ((from day before))
1 medium large onion
paprika (ground)
fresh grounded pepper
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 - 2 tbsp mustard
salt
some garlic ((optional))
dried herbs like italien herbs

Steps:

  • Cut the onion into very small cubes. Heat a pan on medium and fry the onions with some oil until they are cooked through and slightly brown.
  • Place the roll in a small bowl with water and let soak.
  • Meanwhile put the ground beef in a larger bowl, add salt, spices, herbs, mustard, tomato paste and if it matches with the rest of the menu also some garlic. Make sure you use enough salt, it tends to disappear during the cooking process!
  • Take the soaked roll and squeeze in our hands to remove most of the water. Then add to the bowl with the ground beef.
  • The onions should be ready be now, add them to the bowl.
  • Next add the egg.
  • Mix everything very well - works best with hands!
  • Heat some oil in a large pan.
  • Form about 8 Frikadellen / meat balls in about the size of your palm, don't make them flat like a UFO but also not to round.
  • Add the Frikadellen / meat balls to the pan and reduce the heat to medium so they won't burn.
  • Let fry from both sides for about 10 minutes, test on one Frikadelle / meat ball if it is cooked through.
  • Remove the Frikadellen / meat balls from the pan and keep them warm if you plan to make a gravy: Add some beef broth to the empty pan and bring to a boil. The residue in the pan will give a lot of taste. Take some sour cream and add to the pan, decrease the heat and stir. Add salt and pepper to taste
  • If you don't feel confident about making the gravy, try "Rahm Soße"! You can buy it i.e. at online German Deli and makes a delicious gravy with just the right consistency.

4 medium tomatoes
2 large onions
2 tablespoons oil
1 kg minced beef
1/2 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons salt
1 ml pepper
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons soup mix

  • For a crispier meatball, pan-fry them until they are golden brown on all sides before baking them in the oven.
  • To make the meatballs more flavorful, try adding some fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, or oregano, to the meat mixture.
