Frikkadel is a traditional Afrikaner dish consisting of usually baked, but sometimes deep-fried, meatballs prepared with onion, bread, eggs, vinegar and spices. These meatballs can be served hot or cold. Many recipes [1] have put a modern twist on this traditional recipe such as alternating chicken and lamb with the traditional beef staple. Frikkadel are also popular in Sri Lankan cuisine by way of the Burgher people. [2]
