VIETNAM
Advance Preparation: 30 to 60 minutes for marinating the meat
Special Equipment: 24 small bamboo skewers, soaked for 1 hour in cold water to cover and drained
These tiny kebabs are the Vietnamese version of satés. You’ll find them at the hawkers stands clustered in and around Saigon’s markets. The Vietnamese use a modest cut of meat, but I like to take the dish uptown by using tenderloin tips, (which cost considerably less than filet mignon). You could also use thinly sliced sirloin or New York strip.
_ lb beef tenderloin steaks, tips
Aromatic Lemongrass Marinade (see recipe)
_ to 2 tbs vegetable oil, for basting
___ c peanuts, finely chopped dry-roasted, for garnish (optional)
1. Cut the beef into strips 4 inches long, 1 inch wide, and 1/4 inch thick and place in a nonreactive baking dish. Add the marinade and toss the beef to coat thoroughly. Cover and let marinate, in the refrigerator, for 30 to 60 minutes.
2. Preheat the grill to high.
3. Weave the beef strips lengthwise onto the skewers. When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Arrange the skewers on the hot grate, baste with the oil, and grill, turning once with tongs (baste again), until the meat is cooked to taste, 1 to 2 minutes per side (2 to 4 minutes in all) for medium (the Vietnamese-preferred doneness for this dish). Serve at once, sprinkled with peanuts, if desired.
Serves 4 as an appetizer or snack, 2 as an entrée
