Droewors recipe in metric

[SteveW]

Hi all,
Does anyone have a tried and trusted recipe for Droewors in metric please? I'd like the spices in grams per kilo or as a percentage.
Thanks
Steve

Steve,
I haven't tried my hand at droewors, but Len Poli has what you're looking for as a recipe, and as far as I know he tests all his recipes before publishing.

Thanks TJ,
I saw this one today funnily enough, it was just what I wanted in metric. Shame I'd already made a batch the previous day. I'd used a selection of different recipes to come up with a sort of generic one that isn't a million miles from the Len Poli one. They're hanging in my Biltong box and seem to be drying out nicely. I'll update when they're finished.

Thanks Brican,
I take it that 5ml is one tsp? If so I'll measure out the ingredients in ml and weigh them to give me grams. Also, where it says they can be smoked, does this mean hot or cold smoking? I assume it would be cold.

Hi Steve,
I like a good Droewors, but I was told by my South African doctor to go easy on the fat mutton if you value your arteries.
There again, it is the same for all sausages, thats why we make them ourselves so there is some control over the ingredients.
Regards,
