Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
4 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons minced onion
¼ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup fish sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 2-inch piece of fresh lemon grass (white part only)
2 pounds beef top sirloin, trimmed
4 12-inch long metal skewers

Steps:

  • Place ginger, garlic, onion, brown sugar, fish sauce, vegetable oil, soy sauce, coriander, cumin, turmeric, and cayenne pepper into a mixing bowl; whisk into a smooth marinade.
  • Bruise lemon grass by hitting it lightly several times with the back of a large chef's knife; mince the lemon grass and add to the marinade.
  • Cut beef sirloin into strips about 2 1/2 inches long and 1/8 inch thick. Thoroughly mix the beef into marinade until all beef strips are completely coated, about 1 minute. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove beef from marinade and shake off excess marinade. Thread 1/4 the meat onto each metal skewer.
  • Arrange skewers on the preheated grill and cook until the meat stops sticking to the grill, about 1 to 2 minutes. Flip skewers over onto other side and cook until meat is well browned and shows grill marks, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Turn onto first side again and cook until meat is still slightly pink, 2 more minutes. Transfer to a platter and let skewers rest about 2 more minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • To make the beef satay marinade, combine the lemongrass, garlic, shallots, ginger, cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt, and pepper in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. You can also grate these ingredients.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the beef against the grain into thin strips. This will help the beef cook evenly and become tender.
  • To thread the beef onto the skewers, fold each strip of beef in half and then skewer it through the center. You can also use wooden skewers, but make sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
  • To make the curry sauce, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in the curry paste, coconut milk, and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • To serve, place the beef satay skewers on a platter and pour the curry sauce over top. Garnish with cilantro and serve with rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Curried beef satay is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the curry sauce is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
