  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/4 pound ground pork
  • 1 1/2 Cups breadcrumbs
  • 1 Cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt (or less)
  • 1/4 tsp allspice
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp cardamom
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 can (10 oz) beef broth
  • 1/2 Cup cream
  • 3/4 tsp dill
  • 3 Tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. Mix all ingredients together except broth, cream, dill and butter.
  2. Shape into small balls and brown in butter in a pan. Add in the broth, cream, dill and butter. Cover and steam for 1 hour.

Notes

Great over mashed potatoes or egg noodles. Grandma liked to substitute the cream for sour cream and chicken broth for beef broth.
