Klopsiki

Klopsiki are traditional Polish meatballs that are usually made with ground pork or beef, occasionally ground chicken or game, eggs, breadcrumbs or soaked bread, and a variety of spices and herbs. They can be pan-fried, cooked, or slowly braised in flavorful broths.

Fried varieties, known as mielony, are usually larger in size and flat, while the cooked klopsiki are smaller in size and typically round-shaped. Most varieties are typically served accompanied by sour cream, mushrooms, and tomato sauces, or incorporated in comforting Polish soups.
