Polish Hamburgers

This is one of those family recipes that you never stop craving. These Polish Hamburgers are a meal that my Grandma always used to make. We would have them on weekdays, and sometimes we would even have them on special occasions. They were THAT good. Polish Hamburgers are called Klotlety or Klupskies in Polish. Every family makes them their own special way, but they are all similar. Typically they are made with ground pork, onions, eggs, bread and milk, along with spices and seasonings. The recipe for my family’s Polish Hamburgers is an easy one. I would describe them as a cross between a meatball and an actual hamburger. You do not eat these polish hamburgers on a bun, but on their own with a rich mushroom gravy. This recipe makes ten large burgers. While this may seem like a lot, this is a great recipe to make a big batch of, and set a few aside to freeze for a quick dinner on a busy night. If you do not wish to do this, simply cut the recipe in half to make an appropriate amount for you. I serve mine with homemade buttery mashed potatoes and a veggie. I think this is the way they are served best. You can choose to serve them with rice, egg noodles, or even on their own.
