Critical Success Points

  • Sear the meat to achieve good coloration.
  • Blend the date and peanut paste until a smooth texture is achieved.
  • Observe the oven cooking time (45 min at 200 °C) to prevent the meat from drying out.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the very hot pan – use kitchen gloves.
  • Cook the meat to a safe internal temperature to avoid any health risk.
  • Be careful with fresh chilies – wear gloves and avoid touching your eyes.
