Instructions

  1. Cut the meat into thin strips along the grain, then season with the salt, pepper, cumin and paprika.
  2. Thinly slice the onions and chillies, then mix them into the meat with the oil and leave to marinate for 15 minutes.
  3. Heat a cast-iron pan or grill over a high heat and lay the strips out in a single layer.
  4. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning them so they colour nicely without drying out.
  5. Make the spicy sauce by mixing the chopped onion, hot chilli powder and vinegar.
  6. Serve the meat piping hot, with bread and the spicy sauce.

Variations and tips

Oven version. Spread the strips on a tray and grill under the oven grill at 240 °C for 5 to 7 minutes.
