Pork Satay with Sweet Coconut Milk Glaze

The end is here... this is the last asian inspired dish

for this week. I have decided to do something totally

different and unexpected next week. For now I hope

you have decided to try some of these asian recipes.

This one looks super tasty to me and it yields more

than most; 6 servings. A little bit longer to cook but

I'm sure well worth it.

What you'll need:

14oz unsweetened coconut milk

2T asian fish sauce

2T soy sauce

2T sugar

1 1/2tsp curry powder

1tsp kosher salt

1tsp black pepper

1c sweetened condensed milk

2lb boneless pork shoulder

wooden skewers

cucumber sticks

lime wedges

Create:

In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk with the

fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, curry powder, salt and pepper

and whisk over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved, about 5 min.

Pour the marinade into a large bowl and let cool completely.

Whisk the condensed milk into the marinade. Mix in the pork.

Cover with plastic wrap and place in the

fridge for at least 1 hour.

Light your grill, skewer the pork and brush lightly

with the marinade. Discard any remaining marinade.

Grill the skewers over medium high heat, turning until

the pork is lightly charred and cooked, about 6 minutes.

Transfer the skewers to a platter and serve with

sliced cucumber and lime wedges.

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
