These tasty morsels are the perfect way to start off a dinner party or to serve with drinks - they're never around for very long. i like to hand them around to my mates when we're watching the footy on tv.

Steps

You will need 8 bamboo skewers for this recipe.

Before you start , soak them in hot water for appproximately 20 minutes.

Slice the steak lengthways into 5mm thick strips.

5 cm wide and about 12 cm long , depending upon the length of your steak.

Place the steak strips into a bowl with the soy sauce , sugar and vinegar.

Stir well together and leave to marinate for at least 15 minutes and up to 2 hours.

Meanwhile , make the satay sauce: place the peanuts and the garlic and the food processor and whizz until very finely chopped.

Add the coconut cream and whizz again until well blended.

Pour into a small pan and heat gently for 3-4 minutes until the sauce darkens and thickens slightly.

Add the soy sauce and lime juice to taste , then remove from the heat.

Thread the steak onto the bamboo skewers-make a concertina with each strip so that each skewer passes through several times-and place on a foil lined baking sheet.

Cook under a hot gri.
