Ouma Onder die Kombers

What we know so far

"Granny under the blankets" is the Afrikaans name for spiced frikkadel meatballs tucked into blanched cabbage leaves and baked slowly under a tomato and onion sauce. It is a Cape and Karoo winter dish with a dozen affectionate names (ou mense onder die komberse, oupa se kouse, padda onder die komberse) and a place on every grandmother's table. The mince is seasoned the frikkadel way, with coriander seed, allspice, clove and nutmeg and bread soaked in stock, and the parcels are served with yellow rice or plain rice.

What claiming it means

1. Cook it the way you actually make it. Change anything in our draft that is wrong, and most of it probably is.
2. Photograph your own, so the page carries a real picture instead of somebody else's.
3. Send it in. An editor reads it, and it publishes with your name on it and a link to your profile.
