Thai Pork Satay
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork
- 1 shallot, minced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
- 4 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1 package wooden satay sticks
Instructions
- 1
Gather the ingredients.
- 2
If using wooden satay sticks, set them in water to soak while you prepare the satay (this will keep them from burning).
- 3
Cut the pork into thin strips that are approximately 1 to 3 inches wide.
- 4
Combine all other ingredients to make a marinade, stirring well to dissolve the honey. Taste the marinade. This marinade should taste both sweet and salty; if you'd prefer it to be spicier, add more cayenne pepper.

Pour marinade over the pork. Stir the meat well and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours.
30 min - 6
When ready to cook, skewer the meat, weaving it lengthwise along the stick. Position the meat near one end of the stick, leaving the other half as a handle for turning.
- 7
Brush grill grates with oil and then lay satay on the grill for 5 to 7 minutes, or until meat sizzles and browns. Turn sticks and grill the other side another 5 minutes, or until cooked but still tender.
