Ingredients

Meatballs

  • 250 gram Minced pork
  • 5 gram Salt Fine
  • 1 pcs. Onion
  • 50 gram Milk
  • 1 pcs. Egg
  • 15 gram Wheat Flour about 1 tbsp.

Sauce

  • 2 pcs. Onion
  • 1 pcs. Apples
  • 50 gram Butter
  • 14 gram Curry Homemade
  • 45 gram Wheat Flour about 3 tbsp.
  • 200 gram Milk
  • 1 l Water
  • 1 pcs. Stock Cube

Rice

  • 300 gram Rice
  • 600 gram Water
  • Salt

Instructions

Minced Meat:

  • Gather all ingredients and measure them.
  • Mix salt and minced pork well in a bowl – preferably using an electric mixer with dough hooks.
  • Add the remaining ingredients.
  • Mix well until you have a uniform minced meat mixture.
  • Let the mixture rest in the fridge for 15-30 minutes.
  •  
  • Coarsely chop onions and apples.
  • Sauté them in a pot over medium-high heat with a little oil until the onions are golden.
  • Add curry powder, stir and let it fry for 1 min.
  • Add butter and let it melt.
  • Add flour, stir and ensure the flour is cooked through without burning.
  • Add the milk, stir and wait until it bubbles slightly.
  • Add half of the water and bouillon and stir – the rest of the water is for adjusting the thickness of the sauce.
  • Season the sauce with salt and pepper.
  • Let it simmer for 10 minutes over medium heat.
  • Form the minced meat into balls about the size of table tennis balls and place them in the sauce – dip the spoon in water to make it easier to shape the meatballs.
  • Cook them covered for about 8 minutes over medium heat.
  •  
  • Our rule for basmati rice is as follows:
  • Use 2 parts water to 1 part rice. We typically use a coffee mug to measure. 1 mug is enough for 2.5 people. Add a pinch of salt (1/2 tsp) and cook for 12 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and let it sit covered with a cloth for 12 minutes.
  • Serve with chutney.
