1/2 tablespoon red curry paste
-
1 cup coconut milk
-
2 tablespoons chunky peanut butter
-
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
-
1/2 teaspoon rice vinegar
-
1 tablespoon sugar
Lamb chops:
-
4 pounds french cut Aussie lamb chops
-
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped lemongrass
-
1 tablespoon finely chopped galangal
-
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
-
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
-
2 tablespoons pounded coriander seeds
-
1 tablespoon curry powder
-
1 tablespoon finely chopped Kaffir lime leaves
-
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
3/4 cup coconut milk

Peanut sauce as desired for garnish
Method
-
For the peanut sauce: Heat oil in a small saucepan over high heat and stir-fry curry paste for 15 seconds. Stir in coconut milk and bring to boil; boil for 2 minutes.
-
Add peanut butter and stir constantly until sauce begins to thicken, about 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to simmer and add fish sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar. Cook sauce, stirring, for 1 minute more. Remove from heat. An oily film will rise to the top; skim it off if you wish.
-
For the lamb marinade: In a mortar, pound lemongrass, shallot, garlic, coriander seeds, kaffir lime leaves, curry powder, sugar, galangal, and salt into a paste. Add half of the coconut milk and stir until incorporated.
-
For the lamb: Marinate the lamb in the mixture above for 20 minutes. Thread the meat onto satay skewers and grill. Use a brush to apply the remaining coconut milk to the lamb while grilling.
-
To serve: Serve with the peanut sauce.
