Method:

1. Put the coriander, garlic, chilies, turmeric, ginger, onions, lemon juice and soy sauce into a blender and blend to a smooth puree. Alternatively, pound the ingredients in a mortar with a pestle until they are smooth.

2. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. When it is hot, add the spice paste and fry for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the meat cubes, and remaining ingredients and bring to the boil.

3. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and the sauce is very thick. Set aside until the meat is cool enough to handle, then transfer the meat to a plate.

4. Remove the curry or bay leaf and keep the sauce warm. Preheat the grill (broiler) to high. Thread the cubes on to skewers and arrange on the rack of the grill (broiler).

5. Grill (broil) the meat for 5 minutes on each side, or until it is golden brown, basting frequently with the sauce.

6. Pile the skewers on to a warmed serving platter and serve with the remaining sauce.
