First, I marinated the flat meats in the suya spice that I made, courtesy of my learning from the best mai suyas in Adamawa during NYSC.

Below is the marinated meat.

can u show us the step by step guide

Here is the suya spice I made. I have all the separate ingredients for making it, hence I always mix them proportionately whenever I plan for the preparation.

Hmmmn smells good

Then here is the marinated meat going into the oven.

I prefer using the oven instead of a charcoal grill because of the carcinogenic effect of roasting meat over an open flame. It is more healthy this way.

ibdeals1: can u show us the step by step guide

Is it step by step of the spice making or the suya making?

And I set the oven on 350°c

I mix some of the suya spice with some vegetable oil to form a paste that I will rub on the meat while it roasts

pDude:

Is it step by step of the spice making or the suya making?

both bro...

Can you send me some? I'm seriously salivating here!

chukxie: Can you send me some? I'm seriously salivating here!

Wish I could bruv

Note that this suya is being prepared LIVE. As in right now. I am making it and showung you the various steps as I go along.

pDude:

Wish I could bruv

When will it be ready, bros? It's 1:51 A.M. here but I don't mind staying up till the suya is ready

After roasting for about 10mins, the upper side is half done. So I rub some of the spice+oil mixture. This mixture helps to fry the inner part of the meat and also keep the meat moist.

Note that I didn't have a rubbing brush so I used a new scrubbing sponge

You must improvise o

Patiently waiting. ...You go send my own to Hong Kong ooo. Anyhow u go take send am no concern me. Sha send am. I don enter vigil for your suya! I bind sleep from my eyes in the name of suya!

The upper side is done. Now I am flipping it over.

Now oiling and spicing the flip side.

Checking the progress so far. It is almost done

That liquid on the top is the oil. You can just drain it off if you don't like too much oil by flipping the meat over and allowing it to drip into the pan below.

Batch 1 is ready

You can then sprinkle some more suya spice on it and add onions.

both bro...

Ok. Doing that.

Maybe my sense of smell is playing tricks on me cos for a second I thought I caught a whiff of the aroma of your suya

chukxie: Maybe my sense of smell is playing tricks on me cos for a second I thought I caught a whiff of the aroma of your suya

You actually did. It is a mind thing. It happens sometimes when we see a visual image and desire it so bad. The mind compensates by bringing up past smells of that thing. I have forgotten the name of this phenomenon.

That would be similar to a feeling of deja vu

Well I guess I have to shut my eyes and visualize I was eating your suya to compensate for the vigil I kept.

Batch 2 goes in and roasts halfway. Then I add the oily spice.

Tasted some of batch 1 and it is heavenly.

End of vigil. Bed time . No suya for me . There's God ooo!

chukxie: End of vigil. Bed time . No suya for me . There's God ooo!

Sorry bruv. But I will paste all the ingredients and steps used to make the suya spice later. Peep in later and you will see it.

Gdnit

Sompeople like me like their suya very dry so I don't add too much spicy oil to it. I compensate for this by allowing the meat stay longer in the oven. It dries and fries longer.

Others like theirs moist, hence the moist batch 1.

For tasting

Nna mehn! E make sense die

Give us your suya spice recipe if you really wantvto share the info if not, no tell us again.

You just want make I dey dream of suya wey I no fit make ni?
