👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the meatball mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground veal and pork. Add the finely minced onion, egg, breadcrumbs, anchovy paste (if using), salt, and pepper. Gently mix with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatballs tough. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Form and poach the meatballs: Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a gentle simmer (do not boil vigorously). Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking. Gently roll the meat mixture into uniform balls, about 1.5 inches (4 cm) in diameter. Carefully drop the meatballs into the simmering water. They should be submerged. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 71°C (160°F). Remove the meatballs with a slotted spoon and set aside. Reserve the poaching liquid.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 3
Make the white sauce (Bechamel): In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour to form a smooth paste (roux). Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly golden and fragrant. Gradually whisk in the milk, a little at a time, ensuring no lumps form. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens and comes to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 4
Finish the sauce and combine: Stir the drained capers and their brine (if using), and the lemon juice into the white sauce. If using, stir in the heavy cream for extra richness. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Gently return the cooked meatballs to the sauce. Simmer gently for another 5-10 minutes to allow the meatballs to absorb the sauce's flavor. Do not boil.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 5
Serve: Ladle the Königsberger Klopse and generous amounts of the caper sauce into shallow bowls. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley. This dish is traditionally served with boiled potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
