Skilpadjies is a traditional South African meal, also known as "Muise" or "Vlermuise".
The dish is lamb's liver wrapped in "Netvet" (caul fat), which is the fatty membrane that surrounds the kidneys. Most cooks mince the liver, add coriander, chopped onion, salt and Worcestershire sauce then wrap balls of this mixture with the Netvet and secure with a toothpick. The balls are approximately 80mm in diameter.
These are normally cooked over an open charcoal fire and ready when the fat is crisp.
The name "Skilpadjie" means "little tortoise", named thus due to the similar appearance
