Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 60 ml soy sauce
- 120 ml coconut milk
- 30 grams brown sugar
- 1 stem, finely chopped lemongrass stalk
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 small, juiced lime
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

- 1 small, sliced for garnish cucumber
- 80 ml chili sauce

Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1 cm wide, suitable for threading onto skewers.
In a large mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, coconut milk, brown sugar, finely chopped lemongrass, minced garlic, ground coriander, ground cumin, turmeric, vegetable oil, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to create the marinade.
Add the beef strips into the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated beef strips onto the soaked wooden skewers, distributing the meat evenly along each skewer.
Grill the skewers for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
While the beef is grilling, prepare the nut-free dipping sauce by combining chili sauce and tahini in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Remove the satay sticks from the grill once cooked, and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve the nut-free beef satay sticks warm, accompanied by sliced cucumber for garnish and the tahini chili dipping sauce on the side.
