Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Lamb (leg or shoulder, trimmed and cubed)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 small Red chili (finely chopped)
- 120 ml Coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons Peanut butter (creamy)
- 1 teaspoon Fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 10 pieces Skewers (soaked in water for 20 minutes)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped, optional for garnish)
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, prepare the marinade by combining grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ground coriander, lime juice, and chopped red chili.
2. Add cubed lamb to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.
3. While the lamb is marinating, prepare the Thai dipping sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine coconut milk, peanut butter, fish sauce, brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon of lime juice. Stir until smooth and heated through. Remove from heat and let cool before serving.
4. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated lamb cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
5. Grill the lamb skewers for 2-3 minutes per side, turning occasionally until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness (medium-rare to medium is recommended).
6. Remove the lamb skewers from the grill and let rest for a few minutes.
7. Serve the lamb satays warm with the Thai dipping sauce on the side. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.
