Description

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


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb (450 g) of ground veal
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • 1/2 tsp of white pepper
  • 4 egg yolks from free-range eggs
  • 1 cup (240 ml) of heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp 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.
