Method:
To make the boerewors:
First you need to cube all meat and bacon (spek), mix it all together and coarsely mince the meat.
At the same time place the coriander in a dry frying pan and keep on stirring until it browns and then break up the seeds.
Place all the meat and dry spices in a bowl, add the vinegar and brandy and lightly mix together and then leave to marinade in a fridge for a few hours.
You will then need to soak the sausage casings in water and then fill them with your boerewors mixture (firmly, but not too tightly) with your sausage maker. That’s it!
