Grilled skewers with peanut sauce — Indonesia.
plus marinating
Equipment: Grill or griddle pan; skewers; small saucepan
Measures and names
Ingredients
- 600 g beef steak, cut into strips
- 1 tbsp curry powder
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp oil
- 4 tbsp natural peanut butter (no sugar)
- 150 ml coconut milk
- 1 tbsp soy sauce and lime
- Skewers
- Cucumber salad, to serve
Method
- Toss the beef strips with the curry powder, turmeric, garlic, oil and a pinch of salt. Marinate for 20 minutes if you can.
- Thread onto skewers in ribbons.
- Grill or griddle on high for 8–10 minutes, turning, until charred at the edges and cooked through.
- Meanwhile, gently warm the peanut butter, coconut milk, soy sauce and a squeeze of lime, whisking to a smooth pouring sauce. Loosen with water if needed.
- Taste the sauce — the soy makes extra salt unnecessary.
- Serve the skewers with the warm peanut sauce and a cool cucumber salad. Taste before adding salt — the soy sauce already seasons the dish.
Swaps and tips
Use a natural, unsweetened peanut butter. Serve with a cucumber salad rather than rice. Use tamari instead of soy sauce to keep it gluten-free.
