Instructions

Soak wooden skewers in water for 1 hour to prevent burning.
Slice beef into thin strips or bite-size pieces and place in a bowl.
Combine brown sugar, fish sauce, lemongrass, soy sauce, oil, coriander, cumin, turmeric, shallots, galangal, chiles, and garlic in a food processor; blend until smooth.
Taste the marinade, adjusting for sweetness, saltiness, or spiciness as desired.
Pour marinade over beef, toss to coat, and marinate for at least one hour.
Preheat a gas, charcoal, or stovetop grill to medium heat (350°F to 375°F).
Thread marinated beef onto skewers, filling up to 3/4 of the skewer.
Grill satay for 7 to 10 minutes, basting with leftover marinade and flipping once or twice, until cooked through.
Serve with jasmine rice and peanut sauce.
