• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

• 4 tablespoons chunky peanut butter
• 2 teaspoons fish sauce

How to make thai satay

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the first 4 ingredients and mix well. Cover pork with fish sauce marinade and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
• In a deep saucepan, mix remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly until well mixed. Place this coconut-peanut butter sauce in a bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
• Soak 8 or 10 inch bamboo skewers in water for half an hour so they won't catch fire in the broiler.
• Preheat oven to broil.
• Thread pork onto skewers accordion style. When oven is preheated, broil pork for 8 to 10 minutes, or until done, turning often so all sides are cooked evenly.
• Serve hot with bowls of the coconut-peanut butter sauce for dipping.

Satay is delicious served with a cucumber salad or with cucumber sauce.
