Beef Barbecue Recipe

Skewer beef strips and onion wedges onto 16 (5-inch) barbecue sticks, placing 1 onion wedge at the bottom of each stick. Lay sticks on a shallow dish.

Make the marinade: Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Pour over beef and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Make the coconut sauce: Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Mix well and bring to a slow boil. Take off heat, remove lemongrass, and set aside.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan or stovetop grill over high heat. Cook beef skewers for about 1 minute on each side or until desired doneness is achieved. Serve with coconut sauce and garnish with cilantro.
