Boerewors rolls with tomato smoor
The king of the braai: boerewors cooked over coals, in a soft roll with a sweet tomato and onion smoor.
Ingredients
- 1kg boereworsFrom our counter: Beef Boerewors 1kg →
- 6 soft hot-dog rolls
- 2 onions, sliced
- 4 ripe tomatoes, chopped
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 tbsp oil and a pinch of chilli
Method
- Make the smoor: soften the onion in oil for 10 minutes, then add the tomato, sugar and chilli and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Braai the boerewors over medium coals for 12 to 15 minutes, turning often. Do not prick it.
- Toast the rolls on the edge of the grid for the last minute.
- Cut the wors to fit, tuck it into the rolls and spoon the smoor over.
Butcher's tip
Medium coals, not fierce ones: wors that cooks too fast splits and dries out.
