Delicious new twist to favourite cuisine

POLOKWANE – The boerewors is one of South Africa’s favourites meats.

Instead of having the traditional boerewors this National Braai Day, try this beer marinated boerewors.

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons curry powder
• 1 tablespoons tomato paste
• 340 ml Black Label
• 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons treacle sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• ¼ cup olive oil
• 500g to 600g thick boerewors

Method

1. Fry the curry powder in a dry pan for a minute. Add the tomato paste and stir. Deglaze the pan by adding beer and white wine vinegar.
2. Bring to a boil then add treacle sugar, salt, diced onion and chopped garlic. Boil for about two minutes. Remove from the heat and add olive oil. Let the marinade cool down slightly.
3. Place a pack of thick boerewors into a sealable plastic bag or container. Cover with the beer marinade and refrigerate for one hour.
4. Braai the boerewors over hot coals (or on the gas if you’re in a hurry) and baste regularly with marinade or cook in the marinade in a preheated oven of 200°C.
