Beef Suya

Ingredients

• 1 kg beef, preferably sirloin or a tender lean cut
• 1 cup suya spice, yaji
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 onion, sliced
• 2 tomatoes, sliced
• 1 cucumber, sliced
• Wooden skewers, soaked

How to make it

1. Slice beef very thinly across the grain. Thin slices cook quickly and remain easier to chew.
2. Combine yaji, salt, ginger, garlic and oil. Coat the beef and marinate for 30 to 60 minutes.
3. Thread the beef onto skewers, folding larger slices if necessary.
4. Grill over hot charcoal or bake at 220°C, turning frequently until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.
5. Sprinkle with extra yaji immediately after grilling.
6. Rest briefly and serve with raw onion, tomato and cucumber.
