About Frikadeller
Frikadeller are Danish pan-fried meatballs, and Arla presents this pork-and-veal version as a classic. Finely chopped or grated onion and rolled oats belong to its soft minced-meat mixture.
Onion, salt and freshly ground pepper provide straightforward savoury seasoning. Milk and eggs enrich the mixture, while butter contributes its familiar flavour to the browned exterior.
The meatballs have a crisp crust and a juicy centre. This recipe presents individual pieces with the browned surface characteristic of pan-fried frikadeller.
