Treat your ingredients with care...
- Rabbit meat — If rabbit meat is not available, you can substitute it with chicken or pork. Adjust the cooking time accordingly as these meats may require longer grilling.
- Lemongrass — To release the flavor of lemongrass, bruise the stalk with the back of a knife before chopping it.
- Tamarind paste — If tamarind paste is not available, you can use lime juice as a substitute for the tangy flavor.
Tips & Tricks
- Soaking the bamboo skewers in water prevents them from burning during grilling.
- Baste the skewers with the marinade while grilling to keep the meat moist and flavorful.
- For an extra kick of heat, add a teaspoon of chili paste or chopped chili to the peanut sauce.
- Serve the dish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice for a burst of citrus flavor.
- If you prefer a smoother peanut sauce, you can blend the roasted peanuts with the coconut milk before cooking.
Serving advice
Serve the Grilled Rabbit Skewers with Peanut Sauce as a main course, accompanied by steamed rice and a side of cucumber and shallot relish. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves for added freshness.
Presentation advice
Arrange the grilled rabbit skewers on a platter, drizzle the peanut sauce over them, and sprinkle some crushed peanuts on top for a crunchy texture. Serve with a side of steamed rice and a small bowl of cucumber and shallot relish.
