It looks like BBQ weather is here to stay, for a few days at least, so why not try these Brill Brit Beef Skewers with a tangy Hoisin twist? They’re perfect for pre BBQ nibbles..
Ingredients
  • 900g flank steak
  • 125ml hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp coarse sea salt
  • 1 tsp peeled and grated fresh root ginger
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp chilli sauce
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red chillies
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 20 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 chopped spring onions
Instructions
  1. First make the marinade: mix the hoisin sauce, lime juice, garlic, honey, ginger, chilli sauce, sesame oil, black pepper and crushed red chillies in a glass bowl.
  2. Next thinly slice your flank steak across the grain and at an angle. Each slice should be about and 1 inch wide and 5mm thick.
  3. Add the cut steak to the bowl with the marinade and coat well.
  4. Seal the glass bowl with some clingfilm and pop into the fridge for 45 min – 2 hours.
  5. When you’re ready to BBQ, heat it to a medium-high heat.
  6. Meanwhile thread the marinated meat onto the pre-soaked skewers.
  7. Pop them onto the BBQ and cook until ‘done’ (for well done that’d be 2 -3 min each side)
  8. Serve with some toasted sesame seeds and chopped spring onions – then, as you nibble this mega meaty starter get crackin’ with all the other delish meats on that barbi!
