METHOD
Taking each mushroom as a rough circle, cut towards the center in a spiral to make one long strip as if peeling an apple in one go. Set aside.

Take the mushroom strips from the marinade and thread each one on to a satay stick. Grill/broil until cooked through.

Serve with the Peanut Sauce (below) and Fresh Cucumber Pickle (below). Little triangles of toast may also be served for those who wish to mop up more sauce.

Marinade

In a mortar pound together the galangal, lemon grass, lime leaf, coriander roots and garlic to form a paste. Place this in a mixing bowl and stir in all the other ingredients, mixing well. Place all the mushroom strips in this marinade and leave for at least 30 minutes.

Peanut Sauce

In a wok or frying pan/skillet, heat the oil, add the curry paste and fry briefly until it blends with the oil. Add the coconut milk, lower the heat and stir well until a rich red color appears. Add the remaining ingredients, stirring constantly until a thick sauce is formed, and set aside.

Red Curry Paste

In large mortar, pound all ingredients together to form a thick paste. This will keep for up to three weeks in the refrigerator.

Fresh Cucumber Pickle

Mix all together in a small bowl, stirring well.
