MOROCCAN BEEF KEBAB / SKEWERS

Steps:

• Cut any large pieces of meat in half so they will cook faster. Then place the beef cubes in a medium bowl. Chop the parsley & add it to the beef, set aside to be used later.
• Pour the olive oil in a small glass bowl. Add the spices, vinegar & tomato paste, stir until well blended. Grate the onion & add it to the oil mixture.
• Stir the mixture in with the beef until it is well coated. Cover with a lid & place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 2 hours.
• Place the beef on skewers, leaving a little gap between each piece. Grill on each side until the meat is no longer pink inside, between 10-15 minutes.
• Serve with thick bread instead of utensils. (Moroccans eat most of their food with their right hand, using only bread to scoop up the meal).

BEEF SKEWERS

Steps:

• Soak skewers in water for 1/2 hour.
• Preheat the broiler.
• In a small sauté pan over low heat, toast the sesame seeds, stirring constantly to avoid burning them. When the seeds are golden, remove them from the pan and reserve.
• Slice the beef into very thin strips - 1 1/2 inches in length, 3/4 inch in width, and as close to 1/4 inches thick as you can get.
• Slice the white stems of the green onions into 3/4-inch-long pieces; discard the rest.
• Roll up one piece of beef like a jellyroll. Place it on a skewer, add one piece of green onion, then another piece of beef and another scallion. Repeat with all the skewers. Sprinkle the skewers with salt.
• To cook: Place under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes for medium rare. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
