Cooking Instructions:
Step 1: In a large bowl, soak the bread slices in milk until soft. Squeeze out any excess milk.
Step 2: In the same bowl, combine the soaked bread, ground pork, ground beef, chopped onion, parsley, bread crumbs, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed. Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
Step 3: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4: In the same skillet, add the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly browned. Gradually whisk in the beef stock, lemon juice, and capers. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly. Return the meatballs to the skillet and simmer for 15 minutes, or until cooked through.
Step 5: Stir in the heavy cream and cook for another 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly. Serve the Königsberger Klopse with boiled potatoes or buttered noodles. Enjoy!
