Small Veal Balls on mashed Potatoes! Swiss Tradition!
Pane-Bistecca
Brätchügeli…mmmmm…I love them. In Switzerland, Brätchügeli are made from a type of sausage mixture/meat cheese mixture. They are small balls of this mixture that are fried and usually used as a filling for vol-au-vent. I fry them in a sour cream sauce and lots of onions or leeks, both taste wonderful. I served them with mashed potatoes.
If you are ever in Switzerland, you should try the Luzerner Chügeli Pastete a traditional dish from Lucerne. It tastes wonderful!! And if you live in Hong Kong, you can eat this specialty at Max in the Swiss Chalet!
