Mouth-watering Juicy Meat Sticks

Ingredients:

·         2lb of beef

·         Onion (average sized)

·         2litres of water

·         Salt

·         Garlic powder

·         2 Cubes of Maggi (seasoning)

·         Bell Pepper; red, yellow, and green

·         1 small pepper or 2 small chilli peppers

·         1 litre of cooking oil

·         1 Tomato

·         Beef seasoning

·         Dry thyme

 

 

Method;

• Cut the meat into cube sizes and wash the pieces thoroughly
• Put the meat into a pot; add seasoning and a bit of water. To season; add a pinch of salt to taste, a table spoon of dry thyme, half a teaspoon of garlic powder, beef seasoning, two cubes of magi seasoning. Cut half of an onion into slices and sprinkle over the meat.
• Steam boil the meat for approximately 20 minutes until it is tender and the stock (water with the seasoning) appears slightly thick.
• Whilst waiting for the meat, start cutting the different bell peppers up into mid sized (approximately 1inch each side) squares.
• After removing the meat from the heating, drain the stock from the meat, and put the meat into a bowl.
• Grind the tomato and the small red pepper or chillies and the remaining half of the onion together.
• Put 200ml of oil in the frying pan and fry the meat. Add the ground pepper, tomato and onion paste into the frying pan with the meat to fry together. Add a pinch of salt and stir continuously until dark brown (if in doubt about how brown, fry for 7 minutes). When it has finished frying, put the meat in a bowl to cool.
• After the meat has fried, pre-heat the oven to 200˚/gas mark 4.
• Whilst waiting for the oven to warm up, start putting the skewer sticks through the meat and squares of pepper. (Vary the pattern so that there’s a piece of pepper in-between the pieces of meat. Use a different colour of pepper each time you put another square onto a skewer. 
  E.g. -meat-green pepper-meat-red pepper-meat-yellow pepper-…. etc.)
• Sprinkle a bit of the beef seasoning onto the skewers and meat and place them in the oven to grill for 5 minutes.
• Finally, your ‘stick meat’ treat is ready. Enjoy the Taste! Make sure you follow the system to produce the secret of stick meat.
