Ingredients
- 1 packet (500g) ostrich sausage, skins removed
- Olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 Tablespoons (30ml) garlic, ginger and fresh Coriander
- 1 tsp (5ml) cumin seeds

- 1 cup (250ml) mielie meal
- Water (as per packet instructions)
- Salt and pepper
- 1 can (400g) cream style sweetcorn

When I make the mieliepap, I take one part mieliemeel and one part water, boil the water with salt, then add the mieliemeel, cover and let it cook, only when you see the water has boiled almost over the top of the mieliemeel do you stir with a fork and let it cook on low heat for 30 minutes. Then you add the sweetcorn
