Wallenbergare

Ground veal does the heavy lifting here, with egg yolks rounding it out. A Scandinavian dinner that takes 45 minutes, start to finish. At 591 calories and 16g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Simple enough for a Tuesday, good enough to serve to guests — that is the whole idea.

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Ground veal
• 4 Egg yolks
• 3/4 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 4 tbsp Butter
• 4 cups Mashed potatoes
• 1/2 cup Lingonberry jam
• 1 cup Peas

Steps

1. Work the veal with the yolks, cream, salt, and white pepper into a smooth, almost mousse-like farce.
2. Form tall patties, chill 20 minutes, then coat in fine breadcrumbs.
3. Fry gently in butter 4–5 minutes per side until golden — wallenbergare are delicate, not seared hard.
4. Serve with mashed potatoes, peas, browned butter, and lingonberry; Sweden's most luxurious patty.
5. Serve with browned butter spooned over — nutty, foaming butter is wallenbergare's best friend.
