Food Tip |
Cut the meat into cubes and brown in the bacon fat or with streaky
bacon. Remove the meat from the pan and lightly brown the onions in
the remaining fat. Transfer the meat, onions and bacon to a casserole
add the beetroot rassol or other liquid, sugar, salt, peppercorms,
allspice berries and grain, and set covered in a medium oven to cook
for about one hour. If after half an hour the casserole seems too
dry, water may be added until a satisfactory consistency is achieved.
Serve sprinkled with fresh herbs and a little sour cream if liked.
