Litson Baka Recipes: All The Different Ways You Can Make Litson Baka

Succulent litson baka has been all over social media, nudging people to get that mobile phone and order a serving or two. 

Have you alsothought about making your own litson baka at home? Order a chunk of beef instead and make one yourself. You have your choice between a roast beef meal that’s cooked in the oven or on the stove. Both will result in succulent beef slices that you might not believe is possible at home! 

You will need a good cut of beef to make into a roast. To mimic the litson baka, use at least 1 kilo slab of beef brisket. You can also choose a sirloin cut which is a classic cut for roast beef. Consult your butcher for the best cut for both your needs and your budget. 

Ready? Here are your replacement litson baka recipes that we think you should try: 

1 Classic Roast Beef Recipe

The most important part of making your own roast beef at home is seasoning it right. Be generous when seasoning your beef so it can be tasty from the outside in. A good idea is to season it and then let it sit at least overnight, chilled, so it can flavor the whole roast before roasting it.

3 Herb-Crusted Roast Beef Recipe

If you’re not into spices, try herbs with your roast beef. Thyme and rosemary take center stage in the flavor of this roast beef recipe. The herbs are classic together with the garlic and mustard to give this roast beef a classic taste with every bite. 

4 Coffee Roast Beef Recipe

Coffee is not a flavor you might associate with a savory dish but in the case of beef, it’s a great substitute for wine. That’s right. If you have always omitted the wine when cooking beef recipes that require it in the recipe, you can use brewed coffee instead. Apparently, coffee does more than just make it taste delicious. It tenderizes the meat as well as mimicking the flavor that wine would otherwise add if you were using it. 

Don’t believe it? Try this easy roast beef using coffee instead of wine.
