Asun is very spicy smoked goat meat or peppered goat meat that is traditionally prepared over open fire (grill) then sautéed in hot pepper and spices. This delicacy can be served as appetiser, main meal or snack.

It is popularly sold in Nigerian bars and joints. It's spicy, delicious and packed full of protein.

ASUN RECIPE

Asun is prepared with goat meat with skin on but for those of us who live abroad and do not get goat with skin on you can also use the one without. Also the meat can be grilled in oven in the absence of open fire. This Asun recipe is easy and straightforward. You will love it.

Follow my recipe to making flavor packed asun. Let me show you how to make asun:

HOW TO MAKE ASUN (SPICY SMOKED GOAT MEAT) ASUN FOOD

1) Wash the goat meat and put in a pot. Season with 1 stock cube  and salt and boil

K's Cuisine tip: Do not add water to boil the goat meat. Boil on very low heat so the water that comes from the meat doesn't dry up too quick.

2) When the goat meat is cooked soft increase the heat and let the stock dry up with the meat

Tip: This ensures all flavour from the goat meat is retained.

3) When the water dries up you should get a bit of fat from the goat meat settle in the pot. Keep this aside.

4) Cut the goat meat in bite size, pour in oven tray and grill in the oven.

5) Rough blend the peppers and onion. You can use food processor for this.

You can use just red scotch bonnet. I prefer the 3 for colours and flavor 

6) In a wok, add the oil from the goat meat then add the rough blended peppers. Pour in the grilled goat meat and sautéed for a minute or two.
