Ingredients:

• 1 pound pork tenderloin, sliced into thin strips
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• 1 teaspoon turmeric
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon coriander
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 cup peanut butter
• 1/4 cup coconut milk

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, curry powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Stir to mix well.
2. Add the pork strips to the marinade, making sure each piece is coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, but preferably overnight.

4. In a small saucepan, combine peanut butter and coconut milk over low heat. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
5. Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, flipping once, until the pork is cooked through and slightly charred.
6. Serve the pork satay skewers with peanut sauce on the side.

Tips and Tricks:

• If you don’t have a grill or grill pan, you can also cook the skewers on a stovetop grill or broil them in the oven.

• For a spicier satay, add more cayenne pepper to the marinade.
