Vegetarian Satay Skewers

Step 1: Place kumara in a steaming basket over a small saucepan of boiling water and steam for 8 to 10 minutes or until just tender and then remove from heat and cool (I would use my electric steamer).

Step 2: Make Satay sauce - Heat oil in a small saucepan over moderate heat and add onion and garlic and cook and stir for 1 minute or until fragrant and then add remaining ingredients and cook and stir until smooth and heated through.

Step 3: Thread tofu, corn and kumara onto 6 skewers, alternating ingredients.

Step 4: Combine 1 tablespoon of the oil and soy sauce in a small bowl and brush skewers with soy mixture.

Step 5: Preheat a barbecue or char grill to moderately high and cook skewers for 10 minutes or until browned.

Step 6: Combine cabbage, cucumber and tomato in a medium bowl and drizzle with juice and remaining oil.

Step 7: Place in a serving owl and top with egg and drizzle skewers with satay sauce and sprinkle with onion and serve with salad.

Step 8: NOTE - if using wooden skewers soak for 30 minutes in water before using.
