Ingredients

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.

BEEF SATAY WITH THAI PEANUT SAUCE

Beef Satay with Thai Peanut Sauce image

Recipe video above. Meat on sticks is always a good thing, and Thai Beef Satay is one of the best! In this beef version of Thai Chicken Satay, a secret tenderising satay marinade makes economical steak astonishingly succulent. So good, you can eat it plain - but no one in their right mind would skip the Thai Peanut Sauce!Note: Baking soda tenderised beef needs to be thoroughly cooked to be tender. The beef is still a bit chewy if it's medium or less (because we're using economical beef).Top tip: Excellent to grill on the BBQ, or even better, over charcoal for a truly authentic Thai experience.Use leftover sauce for Thai Chicken Satay, Gado Gado (Indonesian Salad with Peanut Sauce) or just douse a bowl of plain rice. You can't go wrong!
