    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the ground pork and beef with the finely chopped onion, egg, milk, and breadcrumbs.

    2

    Add the salt, pepper, and ground nutmeg. Mix thoroughly until you have a uniform mixture. Let it rest in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.

    3

    Shape the mixture into small, oval meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter.

    4

    Heat the butter or vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the meatballs in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown.

    5

    After frying, place the meatballs on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess grease.

    6

    Serve the Frikadeller with boiled potatoes, brown gravy, and steamed vegetables, such as peas or carrots.
