Lemongrass Paste
Blend all the ingredients in a blender until smooth, approximately2
to 3 minutes.
Pork Brochettes
Combine the lemongrass paste in a bowl with the shredded coconut,
sugar and salt, mixing well. Add the pieces of pork and stir
to coat thoroughly with the paste. Let marinate for at least
an hour at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator.
Prepare a charcoal grill, preheat the broiler, positioning
a rack about 4 inches from the heat. Dividing the pieces of
meat evenly, thread the meat onto wooden or metal skewers.
Grill for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the pork is nicely
browned on the outside and just cooked through - but not dry
on the inside. Serve immediately.
