Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef (sirloin or tenderloin)
- 120 milliliters Coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 3 shallots Shallots, finely chopped
- 2 stalks Lemongrass, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 12 pieces Skewers (soaked in water if wooden)
- 100 grams Peanuts (for sauce)
- 180 milliliters Coconut milk (for sauce)
- 2 tablespoons Palm sugar (or brown sugar for sauce)
- 1 tablespoon Tamarind paste
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce (for sauce)
- 1 teaspoon Ground chili powder (optional, for sauce)
Instructions
Cut the beef into thin, bite-sized strips (approximately 1 inch wide).
In a large bowl, prepare the marinade by combining coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, turmeric powder, ground coriander, minced garlic, chopped shallots, minced lemongrass, and salt. Mix well.
Add the beef slices to the marinade and coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best results.
While the beef marinates, prepare the peanut sauce. Roast the peanuts in a dry pan until golden brown, or use pre-roasted peanuts. Blend or crush them into a coarse paste.
In a small saucepan, combine the ground peanuts, coconut milk, palm sugar, tamarind paste, soy sauce, and ground chili powder (if using). Stir well and simmer over low heat for 5-7 minutes, until the sauce thickens. Adjust seasoning to taste. Set aside.
Thread the marinated beef onto skewers, folding if necessary to fit the skewer.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the skewers lightly with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the beef is fully cooked and slightly charred.
Serve the Satay Daging hot, accompanied by the peanut sauce on the side.
