- 1 pound ground pork (500 grams)
- 2 teaspoons potato flour

- pinch nutmeg

Instructions
- Combine the following in a medium-sized bowl: ground pork, a bit of milk, potato flour, ground ginger, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
- Mix everything evenly.
- Take at least a heaping tablespoon of the seasoned ground meat and use your hands to form it into a ball.
- Push the ball from the top to shape them into patties.
- Place all the formed ground pork patties on a plate or tray while preparing the oil for frying.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a medium to large pan over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is ready, fry the patties in batches, and adjust the heat to medium to avoid browning them too soon.
- Place the cooked patties on top of kitchen paper to absorb excess oil.
- Transfer into plates --- serve and enjoy your Norwegian patties!
Notes
-
Cook’s Tip: Do not add the milk all at once. Start with five tablespoons, then add more if you think it’s needed --- the ground pork patties mixture should be sticky, not wet.
