HOW TO MAKE FRIKADELLER (RECIPE)

Frikadeller is also known as Danish meatballs. From its name, it is actually a meatball. Frikadeller has originated in Denmark but it is famous in Germany too so this dish is also considered as German food. Making this dish requires patience because it is a bit tricky to make in the sense that you will need to put up an effort but it is worth it because of the taste of this dish. Like many meatballs, sauce is a requirement in preparing this dish. Boiled potatoes and sauerkraut is also served with Frikadeller. Some people even use this one as burger patty or fillings for their toast with mayonaise. And in Asian region, Frikadeller is served with rice and banana ketchup. I tried it with banana ketchup, it gave different taste but as delicious as with traditional brown sauce. This recipe I am going to share with you requires veal but some people don't like the idea of eating veal. You can remove the veal but should replace with other meat with the same amount. Here is the recipe:
