Sweet and Spicy Satay

Serves: 4
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
 
Ingredients:
  • 400g Meat (Lamb, Chicken, Beef etc.)
  • 3 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 60ml ABC Sweet Soy Sauce
  • 10g Sambal Oelek
  • 1 Lemon, juiced
  • 1g Salt
  • 1g Black Pepper, ground
  • 15ml Cooking Oil
  • 8 Satay Skewers
  • Dipping Sauce:
  • 4 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 50ml ABC Sweet Soy Sauce
  • 15ml Lemon juice
  • 5g Sambal Oelek
  • 2 Kaffir Limes Leaves, finely chopped
Method:

Cut the meat into even-sized cubes (2cm or 1") and place in a bowl. Combine the garlic, ABC Sweet Soy Sauce, Sambal Oelek, lemon juice, salt, pepper and diced meat in a mixing bowl and allow to marinade for more than 1 hour in the fridge. Soak the bamboo skewers in the water. Mix all the ingredients to make the dipping sauce, set aside. Thread the diced meat onto the skewers and grill or barbeque turning often and basting with leftover marinade for 15 minutes or until cooked (to taste).

Shopping tip: Beware! Sambal Oelek is SPICY! It is used by Indonesians for the sole reason of giving a dish some extra heat. Thus, it has no ingredients other than fresh chilli so as to avoid affecting the complex combination of existing flavours already used in the dish.
