- I'd never heard of this recipe for German Meatballs (Königsberger Klopse) with Lemon and Caper Sauce until I got a request for it. They turned out really well - these meatballs are savoury and well-flavoured, and the creamy lemon and caper sauce is a surprising combination. This meatball recipe is easy to make and worth doing.

Dear Keef,
My elderly father grew up in New York City, on the edge of an old German neighborhood. He always told me, "The Germans are Great bakers, but poor cooks." He never thought much of German food. "They can't cook."
So I decided that I'd prepare this recipe and see whether I could change his mind. He LOVED it (as I did). He said that I could serve this to him every week from now on. He was shocked when I told him that it was a genuine German dish, which they eat especially in Berlin.
So, thanks to you for preparing and posting this video -- and to Louis Marvick for sharing the recipe.
Nice story!
My late German stepmother would cook something very similar to this with a mustard sauce as a winter warmer. You just jogged my memory Keef. I'll be giving this recipe a try for sure!
Addicted, love the Vid, Thanks Keef, makes my Friday pretty much sorted
Your pronunciation of Königsberg kinda surprised me, not half bad! Recipe looks very tasty too, thank you!
Thanks Christoph!
keefy i think your just great. so glad chris the butcher recommended you. great dish
Cheers Dave!
Based on my experiments with meatball compositions I recommend a half/half mix of pork and lamb. I don't use beef for meatballs anymore, it makes them tough and dry. The pork and lamb mix keeps them juicy and flavorful.
I'm making them right now. I ended up using my mixture above (1/2 pork and 1/2 lamb); I went the lazy way with the onion and just pureed it in the food processor. They're simmering now, will make the sauce in about 1h just in time for dinner. I'll be using the last of my Maltese capers for that, time to plan another trip there. :)
Update: the Klopse were a big hit at dinner. We do have a similar ethnic dish (meatballs in cream sauce, called "perisoare cu smintina" in Romanian) but they're not as savory, and the lemon/caper sauce definitely makes a difference. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the shout out Keef! Keep up the great work!!
You're welcome!
If you use the smaller grater for the onion and celery it turns them almost to mush which makes it easier to melt into the meatballs.
Cindy French I'm lazy, I use a food processor.
Yes! I was thinking a microplane might make swift work of both the onion and the lemon zest.
this is so nice, im hungry now
Grating onions, celery and carrots makes for a thicker mirepoix in sauces as the veggies melt into it.
I'll maybe try that. 😀
My Late Papa Made this Recipe ....Many Years ago...LOVE THEM SO MUCH.!!..Just Like Oma used to make...Great Job Keef...
Thanks Keefe for giving Cindy French of Yakima Washington a shout out!

Konigsberger Klopse looks nice Keeef. The box grater is an instrument of self inflicted pain, I pride myself on the use and technique off tools but the dreaded box grater vexes and frustrates me every time I use one. Cheers Keef
It's good for cheese!
Looks great! thanks for sharing ♡
Looks sooo yummy! Trying to avoid pork, though... has anyone tried this with ground turkey? I'm thinking to experiment with a lamb & turkey mix.
I think turkey would be pretty dry.
Mrs Keef Cooks sounds amaized you can actually cook lol
Keef do a taste test of the frozen macoroni and cheese from Co-Op, it's actually banging. Also can I get a shout out? Cheers!
We'll see about the Mac and Cheese. Shoutout, no problem.
Cheers Keef!
You guys dont grate onions? In germany we grate them for a lot of dishes, we grate a lot of vegetables actually.
Could you do coronation chicken?
Ah, yes - I'll put it on my very long list!
KeefCooks Thank you for replying!!
[ ZESTING SOUND ]
If you ever make latkes, you'll be grating onion again - just saying. :-)
Hmm, now I'm thinking I've got to make them!
I know I got one last year on my old account but could I get another shoutout?
No problemmo
