Norway (#35) Kjottkaker med Brunsaus (Norwegian Meat Cakes with Gravy)

Norwegian meat cakes are the Norwegian equivalent to Swedish meatballs, and are Norway’s national dish.  They are made with a mixture of ground beef and pork and spiced up with ginger, nutmeg, allspice and cloves.  The mixture is shaped into patties and pan-fried in butter, and served with boiled potatoes and brown gravy.  This dish is a keeper and I’ll definitely be making it again in the near future.
