Ingredients

  • 1 kg tender beef, boneless chicken or turkey breast
  • 2 stalks of lemongrass, thinly sliced, or 2 tsp powdered lemongrass
  • 1 medium onion, cut into pieces
  • 1 tsp. ground coriander
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 4 tbsp. sugar
  • small bamboo skewers

Directions

  1. Cut the meat into small pieces, about 1.5 x 2 cm. Blend together lemongrass, onion and garlic, and chop using an electric mixer until fine. Add mixture to the meat with the rest of the ingredients. Mix well and let stand for 1-2 hours (overnight for best results). Skewer the meat pieces, about 4 to 5 pieces per skewer, leaving no space between each piece. Grill and serve with peanut sauce, rice, sliced cucumber and onion.
