Kilishi

Kilishi is a version of jerky that originates in Hausaland which consists of most of Southern Niger and Northern Nigeria.

It is a form of dried meat, typically made with beef, lamb and mutton, or chevon.

It is a Nigerian delicacy commonly eaten with pap (akamu) and cassava flakes (garri).

These strips are then coated in a paste made from peanuts and various condiments and vegetables, such as onion, and multiple spices.

The resulting product is left to dry for a few hours in the sun and then roasted for a few minutes over high heat.
