Ingredients
  • 100 gr Butter, 1½ tbsp chopped Parsley, 2 Eggs-beaten
  • ½ tsp ground Pepper, 1 Bay leaf, 120 gr Bread crumbs
  • 1 Onion-quartered, 2 tbsp minced Onion, 200 gr Flour
  • 350 ml Beef stock-from cooking the meat*, frying Oil
  • 400 gr stewing Beef-cubed*, 150 ml Evaporated milk
  • 1 Cloves, ¾ tsp Black peppercorns, few sprigs Thyme
  • 1 Celery rib, ½ tsp ground Nutmeg, Salt, Water

Directions
  • Cook the meat with enough water to cover the meat in a large pan. Bring to a simmer; skim the foam off. Add in the celery stalk, thyme, quartered onion, bay leaf, peppercorns & cloves. Cook until the meat is tender. Remove from the stove; strain off 350 ml stock into a jug. Discard the spices & leaves & then chop the meat finely.
  • Sauté minced onion, set it aside. Slowly melt the butter over low heat. Add in 100 gr flour little by little, stir with a wooden spoon/whisk until it has blended with butter (thick paste forming). Pour in a small amount of stock, stir until the paste absorbs the stock. Add more stock & milk little by little; keep stirring until the mixture smooth. Simmer for a few minutes & then stir in sautéed onion, parsley, beef, salt, pepper, ground nutmeg. Remove from the heat; pour the roux into a container & let it cool completely. Cover & refrigerate for several hours until it has solidified.
  • Roll heaped teaspoons of the mixture into neat, even-sized small balls (~ 4 cm diameter). Roll them lightly through the flour, the egg & then bread crumbs until it covers the whole surface. Wrap & refrigerate the balls for 30 minutes.
  • Heat oil to 180° C. Deep-fry the balls until golden brown (~ 4 minutes). Remove from the heat & drain them on paper towels. Serve Bitterballen with spicy mustard or chili sauce.
  • * If u don`t have much time, use sautéed finely ground meat & ready to buy beef stock.
