Ingredients

  • 400 g minced beef
  • 400 g minced pork
  • 130 g onion, finely chopped
  • 100 g breadcrumbs
  • 100 ml whole milk
  • 1 pc Kaisersemmel
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 5 tbsp clarified butter for frying
  • 2 tbsp fresh marjoram, chopped
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch fine table salt
  • 800 g potatoes (waxy) as a side dish

Method

  • 1
    Cut the Kaisersemmel into approx. 1 cm cubes, place in a bowl, and pour whole milk over them. Let them soak briefly until the bread cubes have absorbed the milk.
  • 2
    Finely chop the onion and fresh marjoram. Peel and finely press the garlic. Place the well-chilled minced beef and pork in a large bowl. Add salt, pepper, garlic, onion, marjoram, and the soaked bread cubes. Knead everything into a uniform mixture.
  • 3
    With damp hands, form evenly sized patties from the meat mixture. Roll them in breadcrumbs and lightly press the crumbs onto them.
  • 4
    Heat clarified butter in a pan over medium heat. Fry the minced meat patties until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
  • 5
    Tip: For particularly juicy patties, you can mix approx. 100 g of crushed ice into the meat mixture. Make sure that the meat and milk remain very cold throughout the preparation. Traditionally, serve the patties with parsley potatoes.
