?

Bangers & mash is a very close equivalent but boerewors is a much 
better sausage than your average banger.   It is a delicious 
spicy local sausage sold (& cooked) in long thick lengths (usually 
coiled).  The dominant spice is coriander and the proportions of meat 
& fat, the cuts of meat and the spices used have to conform with 
government regulations with before the name can legally be used.  
The much cheaper and very dodgy braaiwors is similar but is subject 
to no regulation at all as far as I can tell and it shows in the 
commercial product (Cairistiona found a tooth in one particularly 
dodgy sausage).  If you're interested I can send you a recipe. Jan
