EASY THAI SATAY APPY (BEEF OR CHICKEN)

Steps:

• Soak bamboo skewers in water for 2 hours.
• Pierce meat strips onto bamboo skewers. Combine turmeric powder w/350 ml of the coconut milk & marinate for at least 60 min (or longer for more flavor).
• Grill satays & use the remaining 50 ml of coconut milk & turmeric mixture to baste during grilling. Serve w/heated satay sauce.
• NOTE: I've entered this recipe as an appy w/1 skewer per person. As an entree to serve 2 persons, I'd increase the amt of meat to get 10 skewers to marinate & keep all other ingredients the same.
