Waiting for a cook
Tanzania
Mishkaki are the skewers of marinated meat grilled over charcoal at every roadside, bus stand and evening market in Tanzania, and along the coast into Kenya. Beef is the usual meat, goat and chicken close behind; the cubes are small, the marinade is sharp with lime and heavy with garlic, ginger and spice, and the skewers are turned over the coals until charred at the edges. They are eaten from the stick with chips, chapati or kachumbari and a squeeze of lime.
The draft was written from 3 published sources and holds 13 ingredients and 7 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
