Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 100 milliliters coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons peanut butter
- 8 pieces skewers
- 2 tablespoons chopped peanuts
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
Instructions
Begin by slicing the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1 inch wide.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, ground coriander, ground turmeric, brown sugar, and lime juice. Whisk until well blended.
Add the beef strips to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
Soak the skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during cooking.
While the beef is marinating, prepare the peanut sauce by combining the coconut milk and peanut butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and heated through.
Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef onto the soaked skewers.
Grill the beef skewers for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Serve the beef satay drizzled with peanut sauce and garnished with chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro.
