CHICKEN SATAY

Steps:

• KIDS the writing in bold is for you. GROWN-UPS the rest is for you. Make a yummy marinade. Peel the ginger and help them to finely grate it and tip it into a bowl. Repeat with the garlic and lime zest. Halve the lime and get your child to juice it, then mix it in a bowl with the honey, soy, curry powder and peanut butter. Get them to give it a good mix, adding a small splash of water if it's too stiff, then help them spoon two-thirds of the mix into a small pan. Set aside for Step 4.
• Now for some chicken bashing! Put the chicken in the sandwich bag, one breast at a time, getting your child to flatten each one with a rolling pin or a meat mallet - this isn't essential, but they like doing it.
• Mix the chicken with the marinade you made. Cut the chicken into strips, tip it into the remaining third of the peanut-butter mix, then get your child to stir well. Cover with cling film and chill until required. This can be done up to 3 hrs ahead.
• Cook your tasty sauce. While the chicken is marinating, pour the coconut milk into the pan and get your child to stir together with the peanut butter mix. The sauce needs to be heated gently and stirred - suitable for confident seven- or eight-year olds, under strict adult supervision.
• 'Sew' the chicken onto the skewers. The chicken needs to be threaded into 'S' shapes onto the skewers. Get your child to thread the skewers away from themselves, being careful of the sharp points. Younger ones might find this a little fiddly, so they could just push on small chunks.
• Paint the tray with oil and cook the chicken. Heat the grill to high and get your child to brush a baking tray with oil. They can then line up the skewers on the tray. Grill the skewers for about 10 mins, turning occasionally, until lightly charred.
• Make cucumber ribbons with a peeler. Using a swivel-blade peeler, get your child to peel the cucumber into a bowl, then carry on peeling the cucumber flesh into ribbons until they get to the seeds. Repeat with each side of the cucumber.
• Mix a dressing for the cucumber. Get your child to mix the vinegar and sugar until the sugar dissolves - explain what dissolves means. Add the sweet chilli, if using, then pour over the cucumber. Add coriander if your child likes it, or serve on the side for the grown-ups. To serve, put the skewers on a platter, the sauce and salad in bowls, and serve with rice and lime wedges on the side.

SATAY BEEF AND NOODLE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep pan or skillet and lightly saute the ginger and garlic for 1 minute.
• Add the beef stock, nuoc nam, lemon grass, spring onions, cinnamon and star anise.
• Bring to the boil and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes, then strain and return stock to pan.
• Stock can be prepared to this stage, 3 days ahead.
• On the day of serving, prepare the ingredients for the garnishes and place in small serving bowls.
• Around 20 minutes before serving, place the noodles in a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water and soak until noodles are soft (about 20 minutes), then drain well.
• When ready to serve, bring the stock to the boil and add the satay sauce, and Sriracha chili sauce or sambal oelek, if desired.
• Taste and correct seasoning, adding a touch more satay sauce and chili sauce if desired.
• Divide the hot rice stick noodles between 4 to 6 deep soup bowls, and top with sliced, raw, beef fillet.
• Ladle over enough boiling stock to cover the noodles and meat.
• Whether the beef is rare or well done is determined by how long the beef sits in the hot broth before serving.
• Each person tops their portion with their choice of garnishes, a squeeze of lime juice and Sriracha sauce if desired.
