Eisbein

The language is Setswana. :D


The names of the indigenous languages - except Afrikaans - all have a prefix, but we generally do not use it, e.g. (Isi)Xhosa , IsiZulu, etc.

So yeah, in general, people speak of Tswana, Zulu, Xhosa, etc ;)
 
ok, speaking German I don't mind, since eisbein is sort of a German dish. But stop hi-jacking the thread, FFFS!

Back OT, my recipe calls for cooking in beer, preferably a lager. would that be ok with the resident sous chefs?
 
Roast eisbein with beer sauce

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 2 hours

Ingredients
15 ml salt
10 ml freshly ground pepper
4 pork knuckles
2 onions, peeled and quartered
250 ml lager
pinch dried sage
4 cloves garlic, crushed
pinch sugar

Method:
1. Rub the salt and pepper on to the pork knuckles. Place in a roasting pan with the onion quarters and half the lager. Roast in a preheated oven at 170 ºC for 2 hours. Remove from pan and keep warm. 2. Stir the remaining lager, sage, garlic and sugar into the pan juices and heat through. 3. Pass the sauce through a fine sieve and serve with the eisbein.

I assume these are already boiled eisbeins.
