SUYA SPICE RECIPE

Trust me when I say you need this homemade suya spice recipe in your life! Suya is a West African street food that is made up of well-spiced grilled pieces of meat that are mostly placed on a skewer.

In Nigeria, it is called suya, in Cameroon, it is called soya, in Ghana, it is called, “chinchinga”. In French it is called, “les brochettes”. It is also known as “beef or lamb kebab”. It is one of my guilty pleasures – so tasty and a little addicting.

1/4 cup peanut powder substitute with ground peanuts (groundnuts). Use a cloth to squeeze out oil from the groundnuts before use 2 small cubes Maggi (seasoning cube)

1 tablespoon onion powder

1 teaspoon ground Cayene pepper or white pepper

1 tablespoon paprika optional
