Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Plant-based beef strips
- 120 milliliters Coconut milk
- 60 milliliters Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 120 grams Peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili flakes
- 60 milliliters Water
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, ground turmeric, ground coriander, minced garlic, grated ginger, vegetable oil, and salt. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the plant-based beef strips to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors infuse.
While the strips are marinating, prepare the peanut sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine peanut butter, remaining soy sauce, lime juice, chili flakes, and water. Stir until smooth and heated through, then remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium heat. Thread the marinated plant-based beef strips onto skewers.
Once the grill is ready, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Grill the skewers for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are nicely charred.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a minute.
Serve the Vegetarian Beef Satay skewers with the peanut sauce on the side, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro.
