Method

  1. 1

    Bring 900ml water to the boil for the pap. Whisk in the polenta, then stir vigorously over low heat for 6-8 minutes until it forms a thick, stiff dough. Keep warm.

  2. 2

    Fry the boerewors in the vegetable oil for 12-15 minutes, turning often, until browned and cooked through with no pink remaining. Slice.

  3. 3

    In the same pan, fry the chopped onion and tomatoes for 6 minutes to make a quick side relish.

  4. 4

    Fry the eggs in a separate pan until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.

  5. 5

    Serve the sausage, fried eggs and tomato relish with the pap.
