Moorish Cumin Beef

This skewered beef is packed full of flavour and can be accompanied by couscous or even fluffy rice.
I will be posting a cauliflower couscous alternative soon that goes really well -  without the "carbs".


Ingredients

2 tablespoons cumin
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon tumeric
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
2 cloves garlic finely chopped
1/2 cup sweet sherry
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
11/2 kilograms of beef rump cut into even strips or cubes
1 lemon sliced thinly

Method

In a large glass or ceramic dish combine spices, parsley, garlic, sherry and olive oil.
Add beef and toss until combined, cover and marinate in fridge for 4 hours.

If using bamboo skewers soak in cold water for 30 minutes.

Thread beef onto skewers.
Cook on a char grill or BBQ (or pop under the grill) for 3-4 minutes each side.  Basting with the marinade mix.  Until cooked to your liking.

Grill the lemon or lime cheeks to accompany the beef skewers.

Delicious!
