As a native born-and-raised Norwegian, I grew up making and eating traditional Norwegian food. My mother taught me how to cook from I was just a wee little girl as I watched and stirred the pot with her. What a blessing to have had such a loving mother to teach me valuable life skills! One of the dishes frequently served as a mid-week dinner in Norway is “kjøttkaker”, Norwegian meatballs. When searching online, many English-written recipes for Norwegian meatballs seemed to me to be a bit different from your typical Norwegian kjøttkake recipe. There may be some regional differences in Norway and of course every person will do things their own way. But the recipe I’m about to share, however, is a typical old fashioned meatball recipe from Norway, a recipe as genuine and authentic as they get!
Traditional Norwegian kjøttkaker are all-beef, flavorful, and somewhat salty. Although Americans typically serve meatballs with BBQ or marinara sauce, Norwegian meatballs are served with brown gravy. Some Norwegians like to add a little bit of ginger to their meatball dough, and others will add chopped, raw onions. So you’ll find slight variations in these recipes but in the end they are all very similar to each other, and native Norwegians know what.
If you decide to try this recipe, I would absolutely love a comment with a star rating as it really helps me out! Thanks in advance!
How to make traditional Norwegian meatballs:
Use a medium mixing bowl and add corn starch, flour, and spices: salt, pepper, paprika, and nutmeg. If you want to add ground ginger, try 1/4 tsp.
Add milk (water is OK, too) and whisk together until smooth.
This Scandinavian style whisk is an excellent tool to whisk out lumps, and it reaches everywhere! It is a standard tool in most Norwegian kitchens.
Then add ground beef to the milk and spice mixture and stir with a spoon until completely combined and sticky. This wooden spoon from an Oxo set works wonderfully!
To fry your wonderful, tasty, Norwegian meatballs, you’ll need:
A frying pan with oil or butter for frying, a lid to cover, a tool for shaping the meatballs, a glass of water for dipping the tool, and a turner.
Heat the frying pan to medium-low heat and start shaping the meatballs.
I find it easy and convenient to shape the meatballs using a medium sized meatball / cookie scoop. However, my own mother simply used two spoons to shape them: She would keep the meatball in one spoon while using the other spoon to flip it until it was round. It is very helpful to dip the scoop or spoons into cold water now and again to keep the meat from sticking.
Drop the meatballs gently onto the frying pan and flatten them a little bit with a turner dipped in water. Authentic Norwegian meatballs are a bit larger than Italian (or Swedish) meatballs and they are usually not completely round. When you flatten them a little bit they are also easier to cook through. To get the job done faster, I usually flatten all of them in one sitting after I have dropped them onto the frying pan.
If your frying pan is large enough you may be able to fry them all of them at the same time. If not, just fry in two sittings, keeping the first batch covered and hot. I currently use a 12 inch ceramic GreenPan. Oil is not strictly necessary on this pan, but I still like how the meatballs fry in the oil or butter.
When you have filled your frying pan, immediately put a lid on to trap the heat to help cook the meatballs through. Let them fry until browned underneath, checking after 3-4 minutes or so.
When browned, flip them and fry the other side as well, again with the lid on.
The kjøttkaker are now done! Just cut one in half to double check that there is no pink inside, and you’re all set.
Whip up some brown gravy and spoon it on! The following pictures show you how to make delicious Norwegian style brown gravy using a roux, which works very well with Norwegian meatballs. The gravy includes Better Than Bouillon Beef Base, although beef broth can be used instead if you wish.
Norwegian Style Brown Gravy
Traditionally, Norwegian meatball gravy was made from browned roux, but these days people also use dry gravy mixes to simplify. This made-from-scratch recipe is not complicated, however, and tastes wonderful!
This gravy recipe calls for onion powder, which actually is not an ingredient typically used in Norway. But it’s an effortless way to add great flavor without the crunch of onions. (Ugh!) But if you prefer, you can mince and saute onions until softened to add to the gravy in place of onion powder.
To make the gravy, melt butter in a medium sized pot, then add flour and onion powder.
Whisk together into a smooth, soft roux, as seen in the picture below. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking often until browned. This should take 8-10 minutes. You don’t want to brown the roux too quickly as it could leave a burned taste if you do.
Keep on cooking and whisking until the roux has reached a nice, brown caramel color.
Pull the pot away from the heat to cool for a minute, then add water while quickly whisking together until smooth. Return the pot to the heat and bring to a boil while whisking, to prevent lumps.
Also add the Better than Bouillon Beef Base and whisk until completely mixed in.
Let the gravy simmer on low heat for 7-10 minutes to make sure the flour is fully cooked, to avoid a gritty flour taste. At the end, unless it makes you feel really bad, add meatball drippings and some heavy cream or half-and-half. These two steps can be omitted and the gravy will still taste great, but especially the drippings will add a lot of flavor.
For a traditional plate of Norwegian meatballs, serve with potatoes boiled in lightly salted water, and steamed vegetables such as a blend of cauliflower, carrots and broccoli. Ladle gravy over the meatballs and potatoes.

I am currently making risengrynsgrot according to your recipe. My mother made it often when I was growing up. Anyway, I was a bit curious about your other recipes and saw your kjottkaker recipe. My father was from Drammen, so maybe the differences come from there. I do use onion and bread crumbs and the binder I was taught to use was egg. The other thing was that after browning two sides, I put the kaker in water set to simmer. When all of the kaker have been fried, I’ll make the gravy in the same pan (cast iron) and use the water from the simmering pot to add to the rue I’ve made in the pan. The simmering assures the kaker is cooked through and the gravy is added to the pot with the kjotkaker, making it thinner than most gravies. Served with boiled potatoes and a little lingonberry jam.
Thank you for your comment and for sharing how you have been making kjøttkaker! Is your recipe from Drammen, an actual Norwegian recipe that your father brought with him? Perhaps there are some regional differences, that could very well be. Checking with Norwegian recipe sites, cookbooks etc. along with my mother’s and paternal grandmother’s recipes (from different parts of the country), I had not seen any recipes on kjøttkaker using bread crumbs. Upon checking further now that you brought it up, I did find one recipe that calls for bread crumbs and an egg, but not pork. That doesn’t mean they can not be found at all, so I appreciate your input and will change my post accordingly. Thanks again!
My grandmother was from Bergen, and her recipe was similar to John Erick’s. She used Cracker Meal instead of breadcrumbs, and did not use onions. But after browning the kaker, she did put them in a pot of simmering water and let simmer for about 1/2 hour or so, She then heated up the drippings in the frying pan and strained them while pouring into the pot with the meatballs and simmering water. Made a great gravy. She did not use pork, only chop meat.
* Also, she used cornstartch instead of flour for thickening the gravy. (Less lumps to deal with)
Thank you for letting me know! Being that the two cities mentioned are in different parts of the country, there obviously is a tradition for it in Norway. I appreciate the information!
My mother, too, uses breadcrumbs, and minced onions in the meat itself. Also, no paprika or nutmeg, but cardamom. For the gravy, we’d use the drippings from the fried meatballs.
Our family is also from around Bergen, but it could be that the region of America you’re from (Brooklyn here) influences the recipe as well!
Yum!
Thank you for your input, Anna! I definitely believe there are regional differences to foods, although I actually grew up in Norway and so my recipes are based on what we did while still living there. I was also searching on Norwegian webpages to see what other people who live in Norway do. So that’s the basis for my recipe.
My mother was from Drammen – can’t wait to try this recipe-
Thank you for sharing
You’re welcome! I hope you’ll love it!
My Norwegian grandmother & family all came from Drammen too and she used torn bread, milk & egg. She called it something like shutabollars. She used only beef some onion then made a dark brown gravy. I thought hers was delicious. Perhaps the bread, egg & milk is the way it was do,e in her region. Love your recipes!!
Yes, that’s quite possible. Kjøtttboller is another name for what some people say is the same as kj;ttkaker, while others say kjøttboller are smaller and have more ingredients and fillers mixed into them. I’ll have to look more into that part later, when I’m able to.
I live in California, but originally from Drammen. Good to see some fellow “Drammensere”. So my mom makes it with breadcrumbs, eggs and milk as well. Fry up some onion that goes into the gravy. We fry the meatballs, then let the meatballs simmer in beef broth or bouillon covered for 1 hr. Then take one cup off “juice” out and make rue (with 1/2 cup cream) and them add back in. This will make for a richer gravy IMO. Otherwise ingredients are about the same. Use caramel color to make a dark gravy.
Very good! Thank you so much Morten, great details! I’ll have to try them the way you and others have described, one of these days. I really appreciate the input!
Seems like Drammen is a popular place to be from :). So, my mom adds some breadcrumbs and egg to retain some of the moisture (fat) which makes for a slightly softer, but more succulent meatball. Same as John Erik where you let the meatballs simmer for 1 hr in broth just covering the meatballs. Then thicken with flour and cream. Veldig bra!
Drammen certainly is a great place to be! I’ve been there several times, and my husband used to live there years ago. Interesting to hear more people mentioning using the same ingredients and method, I’m sure they’re delicious! Thank you for sharing, Morten! I actually have never had Norwegian meatballs I didn’t like, except as a kid when my mother put raw onions in them. But whenever she kept the onions out, I was good to go! 😀
I love the way you describe your recipes.
Do you have a recipe for the brown gravy?
Thank you! I do not have a specific recipe for brown gravy as I usually wing it, but I’ll look up a couple and post some links. 😉
I have now added a wonderful, brown gravy recipe in my post above! I hope this helps!
The meatballs were sooooo good, I only wish there was a recipe for a good gravy to go with it.
Thank you! I decided I needed to work on that, so I have now edited to add a great gravy recipe, perfect for kjøttkaker! I hope that helps!
Hello,
My mother used to make a (pickeled) cucumber salad-do you have a recepie for that??
Thank you
Well, I can certainly try. 🙂 I’m not sure if this is the same as what your mother made, and it’s been a lot of years since I made it personally. I used to just wing it. Seems like what I used to do, was to slice up an English cucumber, those long slender ones, into thin slices. Then add some white vinegar and sugar along with some water, and that was that. Here are a couple of recipe from sites in Norway though, maybe you could give these a try:
1 cucumber (long, skinny kind), 5 tablespoons white wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar), 1 tablespoon sugar, water. Cut the cucumber in half length wise. Scrape out the seeds, then chop into small pieces. Put into a bowl and stir in vinegar and sugar. Cover with water and let sit a while, preferably a few hours. OR just stir in 1 tablespoon vinegar and 1 tablespoon sugar if you want to serve immediately. You can also stir in 4 tablespoons fresh, chopped mint leaves. http://oppskrift.klikk.no/agurksalat/4350/
Here’s another, similar recipe, pretty close to what I used to do, I just can’t remember adding salt.
1 sliced cucumber, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 tablespoons fresh, minced parsley. Add salt to the cucumber slices, let sit to draw water out of the cucumber. Mix together vinegar, water, and sugar, and pour over the cucumber slices. Sprinkle parsley on top. http://oppskrift.klikk.no/agurksalat/3173/
I hope that helps! At least it should give you an idea on how she may have made it, if she used a Norwegian recipe.
hi! i am planning a birthday party next month for my daughter which is Frozen Fever-themed. [last year we did a Princess and the Frog-theme, so i made (vegan) gumbo and jambalaya and it was amazing.] anyway, because there will be a lot of people, i’d like to use the crockpot like i did last year. i’m assuming i can make the meatballs ahead of time and freeze them, but i was wondering if i could make the gravy in a crockpot and, if so, do you have any recommendations and/or suggestions on how to best make it? (meaning, can i put everything in the crockpot and let it cook, or should i cook something in a regular pot first and then transfer ingredients to the crockpot to finish cooking.) thank you!!
It won’t work well to make this particular gravy in the crock pot, but you could find a different brown gravy recipe that doesn’t require browning roux. If you happen to have a pressure cooker with saute option, then you could do it, but a crock pot takes way to long and won’t brown it the way you’ll need. If you dump the ingredients in there and wait for it to cook, the flour will likely lump together. But you could make the gravy ahead of time and transfer; just keep in mind that if the gravy has cooled down in a refrigerator or freezer, you’ll need to let it come to a boil and whisk pretty well until it’s smooth, otherwise it will look almost lumpy / irregular. A simple alternative would be to quickly whisk up some brown gravy from bags and use that with the meatballs. That will taste pretty good too and it’s much easier for a day that you’ll be busy anyway. I hope you’ll find a solution that works great, and that you’ll have a wonderful party! Happy Birthday to your daughter!
those suggestions sound good. thank you!!
You’re welcome!
I am from Norway and always loved the way my mom made the kjøttkake. This recipe is very close . I added 2 teaspoons of cardamom and also onion powder. We are from Trondheim. Takk så mye. Aldri hadde oppskrift fra mor min. Now I have one very close.
You are very welcome, I’m glad this recipe ended up being close to what you were looking for. Cardamom sounds delicious, and onion powder too. And I have family in Trondheim! Thank you so much for adding a star rating, that’s great!!
I was born and raised in Oslo Norway and when I grew up Kjøttkaker were my very favorite dinner and we usually had it once or twice a week. I don’t know if your recipe is like “min more” but they sure taste the same. One thing I do remember is my mother always added Goat cheese to the brown gravy
Thank you for an excellent recipe
Tusen takk!
Værsågod, bare hyggelig! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed this recipe! Thank you also for adding a star rating, it is very appreciated!
My Grandmother made a variation of Norwegian meatballs Born late 1800’s to Norwegian immigrants she used equal amts of beef pork veal having the butcher grind twice, form the balls and fry lightly in butter long enough to hold together then drop into slow boiling water and simmer a couple hrs. Remove meat and thicken to make a gravy return the meatballs add parsley and serve over egg noodles. Mmmmmm a family favorite!
Interesting! Thank you for sharing!
We have used this recipe several times and everyone loves it. Only change I made was a little less salt. I used the onion powder n that worked out great. The dripping and heavy cream really make it tasty
I’m glad to hear it, thank you for letting me know and for leaving a star rating!
☆☆☆☆☆I have to say best recipe yet. It tastes just like my mamas which makes me happy and a lot of good memories. So thank you again
How awesome!! Thank you very much!
Wonderful Norewgian recipe. I was looking for a recipe similar to what my Grandmother, who was 100% Norwegian, used to make for us. This was pretty close. I used the same cast iron pan she used to make them in so many years ago. The smell in the house brought back happy memories of her, thank you.
Great to hear, I’m so glad I could help! Thank you so much for your comment and star rating!
Really was delicious! Did use raw onion and cream in the gravy… wouldn’t change that.. quick and easy.. thank you
Good to hear, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for your comment!
I made this last night and it was so unbelievably fantastic that my husband and I were in awe! It turned out just like in the pictures. We’re in our 50s and cannot believe we’ve never had this. I just learned last year I’m Norwegian with ancestors from Tromso and Trondheim and I’m planning to visit later this year. Meanwhile I’m exploring my roots and this recipe really hit home for me. I’m going to see what other fab recipes you have! Thank you for such a wonderful and helpful post. I would give it 10 stars if I could.
Oh how wonderful to hear!! I’m so happy you loved it so much! I have been to both Tromsø and Trondheim, visiting Tromsø this past summer actually! Make sure to stay up for the midnight sun if you’re there during the summer, or for possible northern lights if winter. Also, take the cable car to get up to one of the mountains where you’ll get a great view over the city! Thanks for leaving me such a nice comment and star review, I appreciate it very much! Have fun visiting Norway, it is such a beautiful country!
I have been craving authentic Norwegian / Scandinavian food. Being over half Norwegian decent, I opted for this recipe as opposed to Swedish meatballs. I made it for my family and we were not disappointed. These meatballs were very juicy and flavorful. I was sceptical and wanted to use bread crumbs and egg as a binder, but this milk and corn starch was amazing. Only thing I would add to the gravy recipe is salt and pepper to taste. Just to remind us scatterbrained cooks to season and taste the food. Great Job!
I’m glad you liked my meatballs! Thank you for leaving me a comment and star rating, how nice! As for the gravy, perhaps I should have said to add salt and pepper to taste; however, using the beef base does add a bit of salt and flavor already, so personally I think it works great as is, without the added salt and pepper. But obviously people have different preferences as to how much is perfect for them.
I tried this recipe tonight, but I forgot the potato. It turned out so nice! I feel content, warm, and quite happy that I was able to recreate something that means a lot to so many Norwegians. Thank you! I will try it with potato next time 🙂
That’s great to hear! I’m happy you enjoyed it!
Nathan again, I forgot the star rating ! Haha
Thank you very much, I appreciate it! These ratings are very helpful, so thanks again! Have a great day!
This recipe is great, so like I grew up eating, I am full blooded Norwegian from the USA and love recipes of my family.
We eat it with mashed potatoes, veggies and a cucumber salad.
My family comes from Oslo and Gjovik on one side and the Stavanger area on the other
Loved this recipe.
Stavanger here too, that’s always fun to hear! I’m so glad you liked my recipe, thank you very much for your comment and star rating!
I made these tonight and it was delicious! I didn’t add the heavy cream because I forgot, but it was still really good. Next time I’ll add it though because I love the rich flavor of cream when added to recipes. I’m a first generation Norwegian girl, my dad’s from Norway and I approve. Make this for your family, it’s a good one!
Excellent! I’m so glad you enjoyed it, and so fun to get approval from a first generation Norwegian!! I am sorry it took me so long to approve of your comment, I actually just went to Norway to see my family when you posted it, so I wasn’t able to get on here until now. But I truly appreciate you taking the time to leave me such a sweet comment! Thank you very much!
Curious. The recipe that came from my grandmother and now my mother uses a Pork Veal mix, cornstarch and egg as binder and the spice used is mace. meat balls are made and cooked with spare ribs. The gravy is just the juice of the ribs and meatballs.
Has anyone heard of this? This is a Christmas meal for me and my family.
Yes, Julie…My grandmother used the ground meat combo,also…but I don’t know why because my wife makes it with just beef and there’s no difference in the taste I could detect. As with all recipes…keep them simple where possible!
Hi Terese, I made this a few weeks ago, using beef broth for the gravy as I did not have any beef base in the house. My 8-year-old granddaughter (and the rest of the family) gave it an enthusiastic thumbs up and wants this delicious dish added to our regular food rotation. My father’s parents were from Norway and although they are all gone now, I have fond memories of my grandmother Jacobsen’s wonderful cooking. Thank you so much for bringing back memories and everyone else for sharing their stories as well.
That’s such a sweet comment to receive! I’m so happy, you just made my day! Thank you very much!
This looks very much like my Norwegian grandmother’s recipe except she included chopped onions in the meatcakes and dipped them in flour before frying.I believe she also included some milk soaked bread(perhaps this replaced cornstarch for holding them together). My wife still makes a similar version and they are delicious but what interests me about your recipe is the gravy. We have been using canned gravy with varying consistency. I will look forward to trying your gravy recipe myself.
It’s always interesting to hear the variations in people’s recipes. Dipping them in flour before frying sounds really good! And yes, this gravy is super delicious! Thank you for leaving a comment rating, and I hope you’ll love this gravy! Have a wonderful summer!
I just made your meatball recipe and they were great. Thank you for posting, we will definitely make these again.
I’m glad to hear that, thank you very much! It always makes me so happy when people enjoy the recipes I share. Thank you also for leaving a comment and for your 5 star rating, that’s very helpful and appreciated!
This recipe has become a favorite of my kids. I lived in Norway for 18 months and fell in love with it. Thank you for this 🙂
That’s great to hear, how fun that they love this Norwegian dish! It is a very typical Norwegian weeknight supper, and a tasty one for sure! But it’s nice when others learn to love it as well. I appreciate your comment and 5 star rating, thank you so so much!!
Looks and sound so yummy! Do you mind me asking you, if you know where your beautiful dinnerware is from? Absolutely fell in love, seeing it.
Thank you Kristin! I actually only have that one bowl, and I love it too! I dont know where I got it from, I believe I just found it at a store while browsing. If it helps you in the search, it has these words underneath: Home Trends TM. Dishwasher, microwave and oven safe. Made in China. 🙂 I hope you’re able to find it!
Hi!
It’s interesting to read your recipe, and all the comments.
I’m Norwegian, born here, living here, and I’m very interested in traditional Norwegian cooking.
Kjøttkaker is one of those dishes that can be made in a lot of different ways, depending on where you’re from, or how your mom made them, or about a thousand other variables.
I use only salt and pepper for spices in mine, I add an egg as a binder, and I use breadcrumbs and some milk in them. I also finely chop some onion to add in them. I use ground beef.
I fry them in a pan until they are nice and brown on the outside, put them aside and make the gravy in the pan. Then I transfer the gravy into a pot, add the kjøttkaker, and let it simmer under a lid while my potatoes cook. It’s usually served with surkål (the Norwegian version of sauerkraut) or creamed cabbage. Always with some lingonberry jam on the side.
Great to know Synnøve, thank you so much for your input on how you make them! Yes, you are very right, there are many ways to make them, but all of them also seem to have some things in common that set them aside from meatballs from other parts of the world. I have never tasted meatballs as good as the Norwegian ones! Heia Norge!! Have a great 2024, thanks again!
Hello!
Some recipes recommend serving Kjøttkaker with jam, such as strawberry and lingonberry. Your recipe does not mention such a style; do the ways of eating it differ depending on the region, even within Norway, and may this recipe be able to be the earliest style?
This recipe can be served with or without lingonberry jam, although I did not have access to it when I wrote the post. But yes, it is served both ways and they are definitely a good pair. I don’t believe it has to do with region as lingonberries are served all over the country. Of course some people enjoy this jam / sauce and others do not, as it is a little bit bitter even with sugar added, so not everyone will serve it. Good point though, thank you for bringing it up!
We made this on a weeknight and it was quick, easy and very flavourful!
Great to hear! I’m so glad you liked my recipe!
I used your recipe to bring to church tonight (7/21/2024) for a missions program called, “Taste of the Nations”. I represented Norway. The recipe got me many compliments on how delicious my Kjøttkaker was! I, of course, sampled it before bringing to church and found it absolutely delicious! This recipe is a keeper!! Thank you!
Oh how fun that you used my recipe for such a special occasion! I’m sure it was educational and enriching to learn about missions in various countries, and tasting foods from all over is always fun. I’m so happy the kjøttkaker were so well received, and that you enjoyed them as well! Thank you for sharing, God bless you all!
