Time for another Danish classic. Krebinetter. Or Danish pork patties to you and me. Easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy to make and a guaranteed hit with kids. (And – selvfølgelig – me.)

Our family’s krebinetter med stuvede grøntsager |
Take 500g (or half a kilo) of minced pork and form it into small patties. I find it’s easiest to divide it into half, then four parts from each half – giving you eight patties in all. And nope, you don’t add salt, pepper or anything else to the pork. (I didn’t believe the recipe the very first time I made them but it’s true – just pure pork.)
Dip the patties in beaten egg and then in seasoned breadcrumbs. (That’s where the salt and pepper comes in.)
Fry in a shallow mix of butter and vegetable oil. About 4 or 5 minutes on each side should do the trick. You want them crisp and golden, not burnt…
Serve with boiled potatoes and vegetables or – the way we always eat them in our house – with yet another Danish classic…stuvede grøntsager (lightly cooked vegetables in a white sauce). Then dig in. Velbekomme!
Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday! 🙂
