You can also get biltong made from game meat. | This recipe uses a well-loved ingredient: biltong. Biltong is very much like beef jerky, a type of cured meat.

The very first time I made the stew, it turned out to be just as wonderful as I had hoped it would.

| After one minute, add the chopped tomatoes and allow to break down and cook. Within five minutes, it will have cooked down and thickened so add the boiling water, a little at a time: you may not need it all. This stew is meant to be nice and thick. Serve with a side of vegetables and sadza or rice. | After one minute, add the chopped tomatoes and allow to break down and cook.
