- 2 Scheiben Toastbrot

- 1 EL körniger Senf
- 3 EL Butter
- 2 EL Semmelbrösel
- 3 TL mittelscharfer Senf
- 3 EL Öl
- 750 g Kartoffeln
- 1 Bund Lauchzwiebeln
- 500 ml Milch
- geriebene Muskatnuss
- 250 g Möhren
- Salz
- Pfeffer
- Zucker
- 11 Eier

Instructions
- Begin by preparing the eggs for the frikadellen. Place 10 of the eggs in a pot of cold water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the eggs cook for about 10 minutes until they are hard-boiled. After cooking, drain the eggs, transfer them to a bowl of cold water to cool them quickly, then peel off the shells. Set the peeled eggs aside to cool completely.
- While the eggs are cooling, place the 2 slices of toast bread in a shallow bowl and cover them with water. Let the bread soak for a few minutes until it is soft.
- Wash and trim the bunch of spring onions (lauchzwiebeln), then slice them into thin rings. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced spring onions and sauté them for a few minutes until they are softened but not browned. Remove from the pan and let cool.
- Wash the half bunch of chives and finely chop them into small rings.
- Once the hard-boiled eggs have cooled, cut them into small cubes. Place the chopped eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add the cooled sautéed spring onions and chopped chives to the bowl and mix to combine.
- Crack the remaining raw egg (1 egg) into a separate bowl. Add a pinch of salt, a pinch of pepper, a small pinch of sugar, 1 teaspoon of medium-hot mustard, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Whisk the mixture until well combined.
- Take the soaked toast bread and squeeze out as much excess water as possible. Tear the bread into small pieces and add it to the mixing bowl with the egg and vegetable mixture. Pour the whisked egg mixture over everything. Using your hands, thoroughly mix and knead all ingredients until you have a cohesive, slightly sticky mixture.
- Preheat a large pot of salted water. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and the carrots. Wash them thoroughly. Cut the potatoes into chunks and the carrots into small slices.
- Add the potato and carrot pieces to the boiling water and cook for about 20 minutes or until both vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork.
- While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the mustard sauce. In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of flour and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to make a roux, being careful not to let it brown.
- Gradually pour 300 ml of milk into the saucepan, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens.
- Stir 1 tablespoon of grainy mustard and 2 teaspoons of medium-hot mustard into the sauce. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar to taste. Keep the sauce warm on low heat.
- Shape the egg mixture into 8 equally sized patties (frikadellen). Pour the breadcrumbs onto a plate and carefully coat each patty in the breadcrumbs, making sure all sides are covered.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the frikadellen and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and heated through. You may need to fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- While the frikadellen are frying, prepare the mashed potatoes. In a small saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter with the remaining 200 ml of milk until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm.
- Drain the cooked potatoes and carrots and let them steam dry for a minute. Return them to the pot. Pour the warm milk and butter mixture over the potatoes and carrots, then mash everything together using a potato masher until smooth and creamy. Season the mash with salt and a generous pinch of freshly grated nutmeg.
- To serve, arrange the egg frikadellen on plates alongside a generous portion of mashed potatoes and carrots. Spoon the warm mustard sauce over or next to the frikadellen. Garnish with extra chopped chives if desired. Enjoy your meal!
Notes
For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a little more mustard to the sauce. The egg frikadellen can be made in advance and gently reheated in the oven. Serve with a fresh green salad for a complete meal. If you prefer, you can use different herbs such as parsley or dill in place of chives.
