Krummelpap
is a crumbly maize porridge essential to the South African
Braaivleis, or as we know it a Barbecue. The tomato sauce is
made after the Boerewors sausages are fried in a wok-like pan.
The sauce is served with the sausages and crumbly maize
porridge. Braaipap is available from Protea Imports. An outdoor
Wok is available from www.thesizzler.com.
