GROUND MEAT PATTIES WITH

CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE

Färsbiffar i krämig senapssås

Serves 4

1.1 lb ground meat (I use beef/pork)

0.3 cup dried breadcrumbs

0.6 cup regular milk

4 chopped anchovy fillets

0.2 cup chopped parsley

(reserve some for decoration)

1 egg

1 teaspoon salt

some black pepper

2 tablespoons butter

Creamy mustard sauce:

0.2 cup water

1.2 cup heavy cream

1 tablespoon French mustard (Dijon type)

1 tablespoon concentrated veal fond

2 tablespoons corn starch

salt, pepper

For serving:

potato wedges

lingonberry jam (cranberry jam is similar)

Preheat oven to 437F.

Mix breadcrumbs and milk and leave to swell for about 5 minutes. Add ground meat, anchovies, parsley, egg, salt and black pepper and shape the mixture into 8 patties. Heat up a frying pan with butter and fry until nicely colored. Transfer to a shallow saucepan.

Sauce:

Pour the water in the frying pan and add cream, mustard, veal fond and corn starch and boil the sauce for a few minutes. Flavor to taste with salt and pepper. 

Pour the sauce over the patties and cook just below the middle of the oven for about 15 minutes (make sure to use a pan with a handle that can withstand the heat!). Take it out and sprinkle with the reserved parsley. Serve with potatoes and lingonberry jam.

Enjoy!
