Description

A classic Swedish veal burger, Wallenbergare is a true delicacy with its smooth, velvety flavors and rich texture.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb of ground veal
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of white pepper
  • 4 egg yolks from free-range eggs
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons of breadcrumbs
  • Organic butter for frying
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground veal, salt, and white pepper. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  2. Gradually blend in the heavy cream while stirring continuously with a wooden spoon until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Shape the mixture into patties, about 4 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick.
  4. Spread the breadcrumbs on a plate and gently press each patty into the breadcrumbs, coating both sides evenly.
  5. Heat a mixture of organic butter and vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Fry the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve immediately with traditional accompaniments like lingonberry sauce and mashed potatoes.

Notes

For best results, use high-quality ground veal and fresh free-range eggs. Serve with lingonberry sauce and mashed potatoes for a traditional Swedish meal. If you can’t find lingonberry sauce, cranberry sauce can be a substitute. The patties can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a day before frying.
