Norwegian Meatballs | Easy Kjøttkaker Recipe | Everyday Gourmet 2026

Inspired by the hearty flavours of Norway, Justine makes her version of the Scandinavian meatball. Golden, tender, and simmered in a rich gravy that is every bit as comforting as the original.

Full Recipe: https://everydaygourmet.tv/recipes/norwegian-meatballs

Ingredients:
500g minced venison
200g minced pork
1 small onion, finely grated
1 egg
80ml milk
2 slices of day-old bread, torn
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
20g butter, plus extra for frying
2 tbsp flour
500ml beef stock
Salt and pepper

To Serve
Sautéed spring green vegetables, to serve
Boil new season small waxy potatoes to serve
Lingonberry jam, to serve

Method:
Soak the bread in milk for 5 minutes.

Squeeze excess milk out of the bread and add it to a large bowl with the venison and pork mince, onion, egg, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Use your hands to mix well, then form into golf-ball-sized meatballs.

Heat a small knob of butter in a pan and brown the meatballs on all sides. Remove and set aside on a plate.

In the same pan, add the butter and flour, and cook until a light brown roux forms. Using a whisk, slowly whisk in stock. Simmer until smooth and slightly thickened.

Return meatballs to the gravy and simmer gently for 12–20 minutes until cooked through and tender.

Serve meatballs with sauce, green vegetables, potatoes and a dollop of jam.
