It's too popular that ever the kids at home will have to tell an elderly one going out to get while come. Aside being a street popular food it can also be prepared at home with any protein of your choice; beef, chicken, shrimp, fish and some others.
I have to learn how to make this because my mom likes, infact everyone around me. I was left behind either. But today we're having some visitors and i have to make it for them, but this time with chicken.

Step three
Scoop it out into the sieve and allow it to dry up. Introduce the suya spice and pepper. Then put it in a pre heated over of low heat.
Allow it for minutes then check so i doesn't get burnt. Bring it out in ten to fifteen minutes if you don't like too dried up meat, but if you do it can stay for close to thirty minutes and then you bring it out. And it's ready. You can serve along with any food or drink of choice.
