Nigerian Suya Spice Instructions
Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until well combined.
Transfer suya spice mix into an airtight container; store in a cool and dry environment.
Note: If you are using whole roasted peanuts, you can also grind them with a mortar and pestle or a food processor. To remove excess oil, carefully wrap the crushed peanuts in a paper towel or clean cloth and gently squeeze out excess oil. Alternatively, place a heavy pot/can over the wrapped crushed peanuts which will also draw out excess oil.
