Chop the fish fillets very finely with a knife, making them sticky without turning them into a puree.
Finely chop the lemongrass, garlic, and ginger, then pound them in a mortar.
Add the grated coconut, spice paste, lime zest, salt, and brown sugar to the fish.
Take portions of the mixture and wrap them tightly around the bamboo skewers.
Cook the skewers in a grill pan for a total of 10 minutes, turning often, until browned and cooked through.
Cook the rice for serving and thinly slice the cucumber.
Serve satay lilit hot with rice and cucumber.
💡 Tip: If the mixture is too loose, chill it for 10 minutes; cold fish grips the skewers more easily.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve satay lilit with jasmine rice, cucumber, lime, and optional yogurt-free chile sauce with red pepper flakes.
