so...i found out that the enterprise who makes sirop de liege also sells it on the internet.
Its a kind of jam made with pears, apples and dates

look for " Delice de Liege, Original" into the online shopping. Thats the thing. The problem is that you are obliged to buy min. 3 jars of it.
Here is the recipe:
Meatballs
-500g ground meat its better mixed meat: ex. beef/porc or any combination. I find beef to be too dry.
-1 onion, finely chopped
2 whole eggs
-bread crumb
-milk
-salt, pepper, and any other spices you like to add into your meat. (only if the meat isnt already seasoned)
-a little bit of flour
In one pot, mix together all the ingredients. Do not add too much mik or breadcrumb, otherwise the meat tastes funny. The breadcrumb makes the meatballs "lighter", and the mik and eggs makes it not so dry.
Roll the meatballs in the flour.
Then you can cook them with oil (i always cook with olive oil, its healthier).
Gravy
-1 or 2 onions, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons of "Sirop de Liege"
-Dark beer (it also works with pale beer, but it tastes better with a dark one)
-you can add some flour if its not thick enough.
cook for a little while the onion in some oil. They should not brown.
Add the Sirop de liege, and then the beer.
You can add beer or sirop to your taste, as long as the sauce still has a nice consistency.
The real fries from Belgium
All you need is some big potatoes and a deep fryer.
Peel the potatoes, wash them, and cut them into big slices and then into fries (or use one of those little thingies where you put your potato in and push, it comes out like nice fries). Dry them a little with some Kleenex.
Heat you fryer 170°C or 180°C. Put the fries in (but not too much at one time). Do not let the fries brown. When they are mild, take them out of the fryer. Then heat your fryer 190°C and put the fries in it for a second time. Here you should let them become brown and crispy.
Its very important to fry the fries twice, or they dont get as "soft inside but crushy outside". With deep frozen fries, do not cook them twice.
i usually make beans with that.
Enjoy your meal!
