"Keep up your bright swords, for the dew will rust them" - Shakespeare's Othello
The kids often struggle to eat meat and can be a little funny about the texture of chicken. I mixed a tablespoon of peanut butter with some coconut milk and lemon juice and chopped chicken breast into cubes and marinated it in the satay sauce then grilled the chicken. Served on bamboo sticks 'kebab style' with tinned pineapple and fresh cucumber quarters on a bed of sticky noodles. The kids loved the novelty of pulling the morsels of the sticks (although 2 year old did require some supervision as he tried to sword swallow his bamboo stick at one point!). What to do now with the rest of the coconut milk?
I served this up again last night, but not on the bamboo sticks. It didn't look so elegant and wasn't as popular with the kids without this novelty.
