Biltong

  1. Cut the meat into strips about 2 cm x 3 cm (3/4-inch x 1 1/4-inches).
  2. Roast the coriander seeds in a dry frying pan to bring out the flavour.
  3. Crush lightly with a pestle and mortar and mix with the salt and pepper.
  4. Sprinkle a little into a glass dish, top with a layer of meat strips, and season once more.
  5. Continue this way until meat and seasoning are used up.
  6. Refrigerate for a day, mixing every couple of hours so that the meat flavours evenly.
  7. Hang up to dry in a suitable spot (high in the garage rafters or behind the fridge where there is some movement of air).
  8. Straightened paper clips make handy fasteners!
  9. Drying time is about 5 days, depending on the weather, and whether you prefer your biltong crisp or slightly moist.
