Ingredients

For the Beef Marinade:

  • 500 grams beef sirloin (cut into cubes)

Spice Blend:

  • 8 shallots, finely ground
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground fennel
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar, finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
  • 125 ml coconut milk (1 sachet of Kara + water)

For Serving:

  • Pickled cucumber and red onions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef:
    Begin by thoroughly cleaning the beef and cutting it into 1-inch cubes.

  2. Prepare the Marinade:
    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground shallots, turmeric powder, ground cumin, ground fennel, salt, brown sugar, sweet soy sauce, and coconut milk. Mix well to form a fragrant marinade.

  3. Marinate the Beef:
    Add the beef cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Stir to combine and cover the bowl. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and infuse the beef.

  4. Prepare the Skewers:
    After marinating, thread the beef cubes onto skewers. Arrange them in a shallow dish and brush with any remaining marinade.

  5. Grill the Skewers:
    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat and lightly oil the grill grates. Place the skewers on the grill, cooking and turning occasionally until the beef is evenly cooked and slightly charred on the edges, about 10-15 minutes.

  6. Serve:
    Serve the hot, grilled beef skewers with pickled cucumber and red onions on the side. Enjoy the rich flavors and delightful textures of this traditional Indonesian favorite!

This recipe promises a flavorful experience with every bite, combining the aromatic spices and tender beef to create an irresistible dish that’s perfect for any occasion.
