3. To make the peanut dressing, heat the oil in a small saucepan and fry the shallot or onion until starting to brown. Add the chilli powder and cook for 1 min. Stir in the marinade, garlic, sugar and ground peanuts, mixing well. Add the coconut milk a little at a time, bring to the boil and simmer gently for 2 mins. Stir in the lemon juice and season to taste.
4. Put the rice on to boil and cook according to pack instructions.
5. Thread the marinated vegetables onto the skewers. Brush with a little oil and grill over the coals for about 15 mins, turning occasionally.

Cook's tip: If you're short on time, use 3-4tbsp of ready-made Teriyaki sauce for the marinade. And instead of making the peanut dressing, buy a jar of satay sauce.
