Pap
Pap, also known as mieliepap, is a dish that is enjoyed in Johannesburg and rest of South Africa at any time of the day.

Speaking about sausages, you shouldn’t leave Johannesburg without trying boerewors, a traditional South African sausage. The sausage is made with minced beef, pork, lamb, or goat meat, or a combination of several different types of meat and must follow strict guidelines.
