INGREDIENTS

For the marinade:

  • 6 cloves garlic, sliced thin
  • 6 Thai chiles, sliced thin
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 4 tablespoons orange zest, pith removed
  • 3 ounces cilantro, washed and dried
  • 2 teaspoons oil

For the dipping sauce:

  • 2 ounces Thai basil
  • 8 ounces grapeseed oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 4 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons fish sauce
  • 8 tablespoons water

For the meat:

  • 16 skewers soaked overnight in water

DIRECTIONS

For the marinade:

Place all ingredients in blender and purée.

For the dipping sauce:

Blanch the basil, then shock in a bowl over ice. Then purée with basil with the oil and salt until bright green, then strain through a chinois. Blend eggs in a Robot-Coupe with lime juice, fish sauce, and water. Then blend together with the basil oil to make mayonnaise.

For the meat:

Cut meat across the grain into thin strips and then skewer meat. Dip beef skewers in marinade for 1 minute and grill immediately on a hot grill until charred.

Serve the Thai basil dip alongside the skewers of meat.
