Skewers
« on: July 18, 2012, 08:42 AM »
Just got these skewers through the post - 6.99GBP +3.49GBP P&P from a well-known auction site.

I'm no expert, but these stainless steel 55cm x 8mm square section skewers certainly look the business and the price is definitely right.

No more spinning meat from now on! :D

The photo isn't great, but the 50p on the left gives an idea of scale.

Well, I've just finished doing a large batch of pre-cooked chicken at the weekend, so I won't be needing any tikka for a while, but I think I'll have a go at Razor's seekh kebab pretty soon. Probably next week some time as my fridge is bursting at the seams with fresh food at the mo!

Hi Naga,

Perfect skewers my friend, almost identical to mine.  These are great for grilling tikka with as they do reduce the cook time somewhat, and the hole that is left behind means that the curry will run through the meat, making every mouthful wonderfully juicy :D

There is only one slight negative with them, in time the handles tend to come off but it's no big deal, I just squeeze a little wood to metal glue down the handle, and they're as good as new.

Ray :)

p.s, good luck with my seekh kebab recipe, which one will you be trying?

Hi Ray,

Good tip for the handles - thanks!

I'll be going for your revised recipe - after all, if it has superceded your previous revisions, I'd be daft not to try the recipe you consider to be the best. :D
