Instructions
- Prepare Meatball Mixture: Blend onions with egg. Combine all meatball ingredients in a bowl and stir until the mixture is firm. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Form and Cook Meatballs: Form the mixture into balls about the size of a 2-krone coin. Cook in an air fryer at 200 degrees Celsius for 8 minutes.
- Prepare Baked Potatoes: Wash and dry the potatoes. Rub them with olive oil and salt. Bake in an air fryer at 200 degrees Celsius for 40 minutes.
- Make Mashed Potatoes: After baking, cut the potatoes in half and scoop out the insides. Mash the potato insides with cream, salt, and pepper. Refill the potato skins with the mash.
- Prepare Brown Sauce: Reduce wine by half, then add bouillon and bring to a boil. Add cream and bring to a boil again. Mix cornstarch with water and add to the sauce, cooking for about 3 minutes. Add food coloring to desired color, then add redcurrant jelly and season with salt.
- Assemble and Serve: Place a tablespoon of mashed potatoes in each potato skin, create a depression in the middle, and top with meatballs. Serve with brown sauce, pickled cucumbers, and cranberry jam.
