Directions
MARINADE
SAUCE
What is a recipe from Indonesia doing in an American cookbook? Because peanuts came from the Americas to Indonesia, that's why. And besides, I love this recipe. Great for the barbecue! Cut the meat into thin strips, being careful to remove the fat. Mix the marinade and soak the meat strips for at least ½ hour. Put the meat on bamboo skewers in an S pattern. Prepare the sauce by grinding the peanuts in a food blender or medium-sized food processor. Place in a bowl and add all other ingredients for the sauce.
Broil the sticks of meat over charcoal or under the broiler. Cook just until barely browned, about 4 minutes on each side. You want the meat to be fairly rare and tender.
Spoon the sauce over the meat when you serve.
I like a sliced cucumber salad with a Vinaigrette Dressing You need add only plain Steamed Rice and the menu is complete (see recipes).
NOTE: This sauce is great on other meat dishes as well. And I love it on fish.
