Instructions

For the marinade:

In a bowl, combine the chopped onion, minced garlic, ground coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika, brown sugar, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Add the lamb or chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to develop.

For grilling:

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated meat onto the skewers, alternating with any desired vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, or onions.
Grill the sosatie skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, or until the meat is cooked through and lightly charred.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Sosatie is typically enjoyed with sides like rice, couscous, or fresh salads.
