👨🍳 조리법
- 1
In a large bowl, combine ground pork, ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- 2
Form the mixture into small, uniform meatballs (about 1.5 inches in diameter).
- 3
Heat 2 tbsp of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides, working in batches if necessary. Remove meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
- 4
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tbsp of butter over medium heat. Whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to form a roux.
- 5
Gradually whisk in the milk until the sauce is smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened.
- 6
Stir in the sour cream and chopped fresh dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 7
Return the browned meatballs to the skillet with the dill sauce. Simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened further.
- 8
Serve hot, garnished with extra fresh dill if desired. Traditionally served with boiled potatoes and a simple salad.
