Satay Pentul Recipe - Cooking Index
1 lb | 454g / 16oz | Fatty pork - minced |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Salt |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Lime juice |
Spice Mixture | ||
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Coriander seeds - roasted, up to 2 |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Desiccated coconut - roasted (optional) |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Sambal ulek - up to 2 |
2 | Shallots - very finely chopped | |
2 | Garlic - very finely chopped | |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Ginger - finely chopped |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Soft brown sugar |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Light soy sauce |
6 tablespoons | 90ml | Thick coconut milk |
In a bowl, rub the salt and lime juice into the minced pork. Keep aside.
Put the roasted coriander seeds and coconut into a mortar and crush with a pestle. Mix these with the other spice mixture ingredients for the paste, then mix them well into the meat.
Knead it for a while with your hand, then divide the meat and shape it into small balls the size of a walnut. Put four meatballs onto a bamboo or metal skewer just before you are ready to grill. You can prepare this mixture up to 24 hours before but don=t mold it or put onto skewers until the last possible moment (balls can tend to split and fall off).
Grill or broil slowly, turning carefully from time to time. After 4 to 5 minutes when satays should be half cooked and firm, brush the balls with some oil, and continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes longer.
Serve hot.
