Detailed Instructions
1.Effortless meat chopping with Geedel
Cut pork belly and beef into small chunks, place in the Geedel vegetable chopper, and press gently to get fine minced meat—even fat-to-lean ratio, more reassuring than pre-made minced meat. Use the chopper’s fine chop setting to mince the onion into fine pieces. 2. Mix filling & roll meatballs In a large bowl, combine minced meat, onion mince, breadcrumbs, egg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, black pepper, and nutmeg powder. Add 20ml whipped cream and stir clockwise until the mixture develops a sticky texture. Roll into 3cm-diameter meatballs.
2.Cook & serve
Bring water to a boil in a pot, add the meatballs, and simmer for 8 minutes until they float to the surface. Remove and set aside. Heat 10ml whipped cream in another pan, add a pinch of salt, and simmer into a thin sauce. Drizzle the sauce over the meatballs, and serve with lingonberry sauce and mashed potatoes.
Blogger’s Tips
Pork with a 1:1 fat-to-lean ratio makes meatballs softer—lean-only meat will be tough.Lingonberry sauce can be replaced with cranberry sauce for a stronger sweet-tart flavor.
