Sorry, Dutch frika(n)dellen (both spellings are common) are a kind of
sausage, made with the cheapest indredients and served deep fried, with mayo
and/or ketchup, sometimes satay sauce. They are thought of as VERY cheap
food and taste of factory.
Kroketten are croquettes; ragout with a bread crumb crust, then deep
fried.They can be very good, both in flavor and in qualtiy of ingredients.

In Germany, Frikadellen are meat balls, I believe (aka Bouletten in Berlin).
Made from ground beef and/or pork.
Lots of condusion when peopel from one nation order frikadellen in the other
nation
