Frikadeller (Danish Meatballs) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup dry breadcrumbs
    1/2 - 1 cup nonfat milk (skim)
    2 eggs
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
    1/2 teaspoon allspice
    1/4 teaspoon clove
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 lbs extra lean ground beef
    1/2 lb ground lean pork
    1 tablespoon butter
Preparation
    Combine bread crumbs and milk; let stand 10 minutes. Regarding the milk, 1 cup turned out meatballs that were very loose, but I'm not sure how much would be right. (Please give feedback so that we can finetune this recipe.).
    Add eggs, seasonings and flour. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of mixer. Add beef and pork; mix just until combined.
    Make meatballs about 2 inches wide, using about 3 T. of meat mixture for each one. (A small ice cream scoop works great.).
    Melt butter over medium heat. Place meatballs in it. Flatten slightly. Cook 8-10 minutes until they're browned on both sides and no longer pink inside. You'll probably have to make in batches. Placed cooked ones on a platter and keep them warm while preparing others.
