Pork Satay with Fresh Vegetable Pickles
Need Head to the store and pick up sesame seeds, shallots, soy sauce, and a few other things to make it today. To use up the vegetable oil you could follow this main course with the Blueberry Coffee Cake #SundaySupper as a dessert. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes around 45 minutes.
Instructions
Mix first 8 ingredients in medium bowl. Season sauce to taste with pepper.
Place 1 pork piece on work surface. Press slightly to flatten. Using sharp knife, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Repeat with remaining pork, forming 30 pork scallops (reserve any remaining pork for another use). Thread 5 scallops onto each of six 11-inch-long metal skewers. Arrange skewers on rimmed baking sheet.
Transfer 1/3 cup sauce to small bowl; reserve.
Brush remaining sauce over both sides of pork. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover pork and reserved sauce separately; chill.)
Preheat broiler. Broil pork until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side.
Brush pork with reserved sauce.
Serve satay with vegetable pickles.
