In reply to Diane Thomas (Damsgaard). hello, as a Danish guy currently living with my partner in Belgium, the main thing i want to say is that you need more sauce. this is. a problem i see with all "Nordic/Danish" recipes, is people forgetting how much sauce we actually eat. you are not supposed to be able to see the white rice once you pour on the sauce. traditionally this is also served with small diced pineapple, raisins, and some shredded coconut ontop after playing. but those are personal options of course. my partner is vegetarian, so we are making this with veggie meatballs

Man, the recipes you can find by sheer accident. This happens to be one of them. One things lead to another regarding searching for meatballs, and it was pure curiosity to see if each Nordic country had its take on the foodstuff - and I have done Swedish meatballs so many times. Also, I want to introduce my baby nephew to 100 cuisines by the time he is in year 1 at school - we roll over to 16 with Denmark. And I wouldn't have expected that one so soon.

The biggest difference between this recipe and what I made was that I used ground beef - it was what was in the freezer at home. And let's say milk in a meatball - the actual meatball - is a new one on me.

Overall, it is a slight bit on the bland side - I definitely will go more mad on the curry powder next time. It was also good to have something that was less greasy after so many recipes which had rich textures and flavours. A couple of my nieces were even a little interested in trying it.

As always, I like to spread my culinary wings to other cuisines in all corners of the world. It gets you to try new things, and this was one of them.

I can not describe how wonderful this dish is. My husband & I host Danish college kids and last night, our newest group of boys made this but with oats and not the apples. It was their first time making it from watching their Moms. My kitchen was a mess, but I was happy with such great tasting food. Thank you for posting.

In reply to Kim Nielsen. My Danish dad always served with peeled boiled potatoes as did my Bedstemor.

My grandparents were Danish and I grew up eating this dish! We always had it with steamed carrots on the side and we never used apples in it but that might have been a preference of my grandma. Such good memories

I’ve had this recipe many times and it is delicious 🔥 I lived in Bagsværd for 22 years and it was one of my favorites, I am going to try this recipe with chicken instead of pork only because I have chicken and no pork😃. Chicken does go well with curry, I’ll let you know how it is😃. Skal 🍺

In reply to Anita. The type of apples are not that important. Just use some nice apples for your local supermarket. Regards Kim (NordicFoodLiving.com)

In reply to Diane Thomas (Damsgaard). I know you posted over a year ago but I just stumbled across this recipe.. I believe you meant that the carrots were in the curry sauce with meatballs? Not as a side, right..?! (I'm going to add carrots to the sauce, they always slightly sweeten up a curry.) Never, ever boiled meatballs before so this will be a new experience!!

In reply to Michelle. I like to serve it with canned pineapple slices, drizzled with curry and browned on a pan. I usually leave out the apples when doing this, as the pineapples are sweet enough on their own.
