Party Beef Skewers

Recipe Serves 8 | Prep 40 minutes | Cook 10 minutes

Succulent grilled beef marinated in honey and soy.

Ingredients

• 1 pound Australian beef steak (sirloin or tenderloin)
• 1 bunch shallots
• 16 cocktail kebab skewers

For marinade combine:

• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sherry

Method

1. If using bamboo skewers, soak in water for about 20 minutes so they don't burn during cooking. If using metal ones, there isn't any need for this step.
2. Trim steak, then cut into 16 thin strips, about 5 inches in length. Cut shallots into 32 x 1 inch pieces.
3. Weave a strip of meat onto each skewer inserting a piece of shallot at either end. Brush with honey and soy marinade and leave to marinate in refrigerator until ready to cook (overnight if you have the time).
4. Cook on a well-oiled, hot barbecue plate for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve on a platter as fingerfood starter.

TIP: If marinade starts to burn, reduce the heat or move to a cooler part of the barbecue.
