Decilitres!

A decilitre is 100 ml.Seems like an odd way to measure breadcrumbs, but the recipe looks pretty robust.

Thanks for sharing the recipe and l have learnt something new today
l only looked in here to find out what a dl was and came out with a nice recipe to use up my pork mince
l was thinking of making it up and putting it into a flat dish and putting the topping on rather than muffins

will be european recipe, ml, dl, cl, etc are used as metric measurements,
also g, dg,
:D

my son had a swedish girlfriend and she was always trying to change from dl cl etc to our metric measurements. I thought 1dl was = to a tab. But never had to convert so good to know. And they sound more like mini meatloaves than muffins will give them a go!

just read it again duh.of course they are not muffins, seems an awful lot of sour cream 200mls!

korbo, Feb 9, 6:05pm
i am pretty sure it means tablespoon, as 2 tblsp of sour cream would be right.

Post 1 recipe without the filling but with added say sausage meat is similar to a meatloaf recipe using a cup or two (thereabouts) of sour cream or yoghurt (depending what one has) and use breadcrumbs to bulk up if required. or to take up the moisture a little.
