Recipe for food... Yet again =)
In every BBQ that I organize, I will be making kababs, making them a specialty and unique part of my BBQ.
But how do u make them nice and tasty? The answer is in the meat and the marinate.
Firstly, if u plan to use big chunks of meat, then use only chicken tighs. The chicken breast is only usable if u cut the meat into small pieces like those u find in satay. However, if you want to use chicken breast, put some coke or root beer inside your marinate. The acid inside will serve a tenderizing effect, making the meat taste better.
Next, the marinate must be nice. Think of what u will like to taste. The good combinations will be:
1) Kikoman Teriyaki sauce, Itallian Herbs, Corn Flour
2) Dark soya sauce, Oyster Sauce, Chili Sauce, Corn Flour
3) Mustard, Dark Soya Sauce, Pepper, Corn Flour
4) Honey, Light Soya Sauce, Itallian Herbs, Corn Flour
As you can see, Corn flour is an important ingrident. It serves to thicken up the marinate and make it more flavorful. Also when you use it to baste your kabab, it will taste much better. Remember, when cooking kababs, you will need to constantly baste it with the marinate. If not, use other sauces to baste it. The sauces aid in making the food more flavorful and the meat more tender
Lastly, mix the meat with a variety of veges! Mix it with Onions, Bell Pepper, Chilli, Baby tomatoes, Baby Carrots, Baby corn etc. This increae the flavor of the kabab =)
Now who will make the kabab for me? Or will I have to make it myself =(
