Ingredients

Method

  1. In a large bowl, combine ground pork, ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. Form the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix sour cream, milk, and Dijon mustard for the sauce.
  5. Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash with mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper.
  6. Serve the meatballs with the potato salad and a glass of cold Danish water.
  7. Check that the ground meat reaches 71°C (160°F) throughout before serving.
