Spicy peanut-crusted grilled beef — Nigeria.
plus marinating
Equipment: Grill or griddle pan; skewers; pestle or grinder
Measures and names
Ingredients
- 600 g beef steak, sliced
- 4 tbsp roasted peanuts, finely ground
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 1 tsp cayenne
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1 stock cube, crumbled
- 2 tbsp oil
- Skewers
- Sliced onion and tomato, to serve
Method
- Grind the peanuts finely and mix with the paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, ginger and crumbled stock cube to make the suya spice.
- Toss the beef slices with the oil, then coat thoroughly in about three-quarters of the spice mix. Marinate for 20 minutes if you have time.
- Thread onto skewers without packing too tightly.
- Grill or griddle on high for 8–10 minutes, turning, until charred at the edges and just cooked through.
- Dust with the remaining suya spice — no extra salt needed; the stock cube covers it — and serve with sliced raw onion and tomato, as is traditional.
Swaps and tips
Grind the peanuts finely so the spice coats evenly. Serve with sliced raw onion and tomato, as is traditional.
