1

Wash the fish and beef with vinegar or lime and salt.

2

Season the fish separately with ginger and garlic, massaging it well.

3

Add mixed spices and one seasoning cube to the fish, massage again, and set aside to marinate for 2 hours.

4

Cut the beef into preferred sizes and season with the same spices as the fish, adding beef seasoning as well.

5

Transfer the seasoned beef to a pot, add a bit of water, and boil for about 15 minutes until tender.

6

Wash the peanut butter to remove any sand, then boil it for 10 minutes to create a paste.

7

Add tomato paste and black pepper to the peanut butter paste, and a bit of vegetable oil to loosen it up.

8

Once the beef is tender, allow it to dry off if you don't want a stock.

9

After boiling, coat the fish with the peanut butter paste, ensuring it covers every part.

10

Skewer the fish and beef onto metal skewers, alternating pieces, and prepare for roasting.

11

Make a fire and use a roasting rack to cook the skewers until done.
