I’m on a quest for traditional meat snacks from various cultures and during that quest I stumbled upon Suya. Oh how I love Suya! Suya originates from Northern Nigeria but apparently can be enjoyed anywhere in Nigeria.

I was initially skeptical about adding peanuts to my steak but after this, I’m sold and there’s no buying me back.

Steps

20 minutes

1

Grind peanuts in a coffee grinder until finely crushed but not formed into a paste
2

Prepare SUYA SPICE: mix all spices with ground peanuts in a bowl. Pat beef pieces dry with a paper towel and massage a tablespoon of oil and half of the spice mix into the beef. Cover bowl with cling firm and marinate in the fridge for an hour or overnight
3

Soak the skewers in water for at least 20 minutes. Thread beef strips onto the skewers, about 3 - 4 per skewer for the meat to cover most of the skewer
4

Dab the skewered beef all around with the rest of the Suya spice mixture. Then line your airfryer with foil and place the skewers on
5

Drizzle with oil and air fry at 200C for about 20 -25 minutes
