HOW TO MAKE BEEF SATAY

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.

BEEF SATE WITH SPICY SZECHUAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Soak the bamboo or wooden skewers in cold water and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Cut the steak into 24 (3 by 1-inch) strips, each weighing about 1/2-ounce. Stick a skewer into each strip lengthwise and arrange on a large platter or baking pan. Refrigerate until needed.
• Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients and pour over the meat, turning to coat all sides. Let marinate at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
• Preheat the grill or broiler while the steak is marinating.
• Prepare the sauce: In a small skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add the garlic and green onion and saute over medium-high heat until soft, about 2 minutes. Pour in the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and chili pepper flakes and cook 1 or 2 minutes longer. Strain into a clean pan and whisk in the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Keep warm.
• Arrange the steak skewers on the grill or under the broiler,* being careful that the bare ends of the skewers are not directly over (or under) the flame. Grill until medium rare, about 30 to 40 seconds each side.
• Pour the sauce into a small bowl and set in the center of a large serving platter. Arrange the skewers around the bowl and serve immediately.
• *Bring your broiler tray directly under the flame for best results.

BEEF SATES WITH HOISIN DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare grill. Soak skewers in warm water 20 minutes.
• While skewers are soaking, thinly slice garlic and in a shallow glass dish stir together with gingerroot and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Season marinade with salt and pepper. Holding a knife at a 45° angle, cut steak crosswise into about 1/4-inch-thick slices and add to marinade, tossing to coat well. Marinate steak at room temperature 10 minutes. In a small bowl whisk together hoisin sauce, ketchup, and remaining lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Drain skewers. Beginning at one end of each slice of steak, weave a skewer lengthwise through it, stretching slice on skewer to flatten, and transfer to a plate. Season satés with salt and pepper. Grill satés on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side for medium-rare.
• Serve satés with hoisin dipping sauce and lime wedges.
