| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. In a small pan, melt the 1 tablespoon of butter. When the foam subsides, add the onions and cook for 2 or 3 minutes, or until they are soft and transparent but not brown.
|
2. Scrape into a large bowl, and add the meat, egg yolks, capers, salt, a few grindings of pepper and white vinegar. Mix together and moisten with the heavy cream.
|
3. Then stir in the drained chopped beets. Shape the mixture into 12 to 14 round patties, about 2 to 3 inches in diameter. In a heavy, large skillet, heat the butter and oil.
|
4. When the foam subsides, add the patties, 3 or 4 at a time, and cook over moderately high heat for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, or until they are a deep brown.
|
5. In Sweden, these spicy hamburgers are frequently served with a fried egg set atop each, in which case they are made larger and thicker.
