Ingredients

Method

Macadamia and chili sauce

Ingredients

Method

For the macadamia and chilli sauce, heat the oil in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Then add the garlic, fish sauce and shallots and saute for 3 minutes. Add the coconut cream and sugar, bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer for 1 minute. Remove from the heat
Put the macadamias, chillies, lemongrass and soy sauce in a blender or small food processor, pulse until combined then add the coconut cream mixture and pulse until well mixed
Once the meat is marinated, thread evenly onto the skewers, making sure you leave room so you can use the stick as a handle. Heat a barbeque or grill to medium heat and cook skewers for 6-8 minutes or until beef is cooked to your liking, turning occasionally
While the skewers are cooking, gently warm the sauce over the stove
Serve the beef skewers with the macadamia and chilli sauce, lime wedges and steamed jasmine rice
