Ingredients

• 500 grams beef sirloin
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons fish sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon red chili paste
• 200 milliliters coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 10 pieces bamboo skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes)
• 100 grams peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 100 milliliters water
• 2 tablespoons crushed peanuts (for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Trim the beef sirloin of any excess fat and slice it into thin, bite-sized strips.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, ground turmeric, ground coriander, minced garlic, grated ginger, red chili paste, coconut milk, and lime juice to make the marinade.

Step 3

Add the beef strips to the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for best flavor.

Step 4

While the beef is marinating, prepare the peanut sauce by combining peanut butter, hoisin sauce, water, and 1 tablespoon of red chili paste in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until smooth and heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Thread the marinated beef strips onto the soaked bamboo skewers.

Step 7

Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side or until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness and slightly charred on the edges.

Step 8

Transfer the grilled skewers to a serving platter and garnish with crushed peanuts and fresh cilantro.

Step 9

Serve the beef satay hot, accompanied by the peanut sauce for dipping.
