  • 750 de-boned thick rib of pork
  • 200 g of pork fat (spek)
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 2 tablespoons salt

Directions

  2. Sprinkle the seasoning over the meat (not the vinegar),
  3. mix well and then mince together.
  4. Add the vinegar and mix lightly, but thoroughly.
  5. Stuff into casing
  6. refrigerate for 24 hours in a covered, non-metal container.
  7. (Optional: You can experiment by adding additional ingredients. For a lovely curry flavour add a tablespoon of curry powder to the above recipe. For a great garlic flavour add finely crushed and chopped garlic and for a sharper taste add more vinegar).
  8. Do not overcook sausage.
  9. About 12-15 minutes over slow coals (Braai) should do well.
  10. Serve with other BBQ dishes like Mealie Bread.

This would be great for my grill and I can not wait to try this. I like the spice combination you have going on here.
Five forks and a smile :)


Our butcher makes these from time to time but never when we want one. It will be great now, to be able to make them ourselves. Thanks for sharing this traditional recipe with us.
