Ingredients
  

  • A whole rabbit cut into pieces.
  • 1 large onion finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Minced garlic and ginger
  • 3 large tomatoes puree
  • 2 Green chillis
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • Beef cubes or maggies other spices of your liking
  • 2 tbsp Cooking oil
  • Salt
  • For marination
  • 1 tbsp Soy sauce for marination optional
  • 1 tbsp Ginger garlic paste
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Lemon

Instructions
 

Clean and marinate

  • Cut and clean the rabbit. You can also clean it in a brine solution if you like.
  • Chop the onions and puree the tomatoes for later use.
  • Marinate the rabbit. Take a clean bowl and set it with soy sauce, paprika, ginger, garlic paste, salt and lemon juice. Mix everything and rub it over the rabbit.
  • Let the marinated rabbit rest in the fridge for 20 minutes. Remember, rabbits are naturally lean; thus, they don't need too much marination.

Roast

  • Roast the rabbit in the oven or open the fire grill, whichever works for you. I set mine in the oven for 20 minutes at 180C

Make the tomato sauce

  • Meanwhile, make the tomato sauce. Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a clean saucepan. Now add the chopped onions to brown and then the ginger-garlic paste.
  • Next, add the pureed tomatoes, toss, and cover for a minute. Add paprika, beef cubes, and green chilies. Toss it a bit, cover it, and then add the roasted rabbit.

Finish and serve

  • Toss the mixture and cover for two minutes, then add a cup of water or broth to allow everything to cook.
  • Cook it on slow heat for about 10 minutes. When ready, garnish with parsley.
  • Serve it with ugali rice or potatoes
