LAMB SATAY

Steps:

• Put the meat in a mixing bowl and sprinkle over the meat tenderizer. Rub and mix until all meat pieces are covered with a meat tenderizer. Set aside.
• In a food processor, put the onion, garlic, ground coriander, cumin, salt, and water. Give it a blitz until you get a smooth mixture. Or, you can use a pestle and mortar to pound to make the spice paste.
• Heat the oil on a small frying pan, and fry the spice mixture and kaffir lime leaves until it's cooked and smell fragrant. Set aside to cool slightly.
• When the spice is cool, add it to the meat and mix it until all the meat pieces are covered with the spice mixture. Set aside to marinate for at least one hour.
• In the meantime, you can make the sauce. Put the peanuts, onion, garlic, chilli, salt and water in a blender. Blitz until you get a grainy smooth peanut mixture.
• Then cook the peanut mixture in a cooking pan until it's boiling and simmering. The sauce will look shiny with a little oil on the side.
• To make the pickle, put the cucumber cubes, chopped carrot, onion, and chillies in a mixing bowl. Drizzle over the lime juice and sprinkle the salt and sugar. Taste it and add the sugar or salt accordingly. The pickle should taste refreshingly tangy, spicy, salty and a little bit sweet. Yummy.
• When your meat is ready to grill, heat your griddle pan and drizzle a teaspoon of oil. Put the skewers of lamb on the pan and cook at moderate-high heat. Take care and keep turning the skewers every so often.
• Once the satay is cooked, arrange on a plate and top it with the sauce and sweet soy sauce. Enjoy your lamb satay with the pickle on the side.
