How to Cook the boerewors or sausages.

  1. In a frying pan add a little water, and the boerewors. Heat it up and cook and turn when needed, make sure that there is enough water in the pan so the sausage does not burn. Sometimes the sausage or boerewors leaks some of the meat fat. Cook until nice and brown. The water would have evaporated.

Tomato onion and pepper sauce.

  1. Add the olive oil in a pan and sauté the onion and bell peppers. (4 minutes) If you using garlic cloves then add them now.
  2. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and peppers, stir and cook until the flour has been absorbed and a little brown.

  4. Add the sugar, tomatoes, salt and garlic flakes and basil flakes.
  5. Continue to stir for about two to three minutes.

  7. We created a vetkoek hot dog. Use this sauce for toasts or other breakfast and meals as well as boerewors rolls.
  8. enjoy.

Notes

  1. Change the consistency of this sauce by adding a little more stock or water. 
  2. Using a tin of tomato onion mix is also possible, instead of making this recipe. but rather use fresh tomatoes for this recipe than any tinned ones.
  3. This may be kept in the fridge for up to four days covered.
