1 1/2 pounds sirloin beef, cut in 1-inch cubes
12 bamboo skewers
Vegetable oil, preferably peanut
Sambal kacang, store-bought or homemade
4 green onions, chopped, including some of the greens
4 to 5 Thai chiles, stems removed; or substitute serrano chiles
1 tablespoon chopped ginger
3 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 tablespoon lime juice, preferably fresh
2 tablespoons tamarind juice
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup coconut milk

1
To make the marinade, place the onion, chiles, ginger, and garlic in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth, adding some peanut oil, if necessary, to form a paste.
2
Heat a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, add the oil and when hot, add the spice paste and saute the mixture for a couple of minutes.
3
Add the remaining marinade ingredients and simmer until the sauce starts to thicken, about 15 minutes.
4
If the marinade becomes too thick, thin with hot water.
5
Allow the mixture to cool.
6
Place the beef cubes in a nonreactive bowl or heavy plastic resealable bag, add the marinade, and toss to coat.
7
Marinate the beef overnight in the refrigerator, turning occasionally.
8
Soak the skewers in water 15 minutes before using.
9
Remove the beef and thread on skewers.
10
Preheat a gas gill to high; if you are using charcoal, the coals should be glowing.
11
Grill the satays until done, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
12
Brush them constantly with the oil and turn frequently to prevent burning.
13
Cut one cube to check for doneness; they should be slightly charred on the outside and just done on the inside.
14
To serve, place the satays on a platter, with Sambal Kacang on the side for dipping.
