Lemongrass Beef Skewers with Ginger and Shallots

Lemongrass Beef Skewers with Ginger and Shallots

A deeply flavorful homemade curry paste, inspired by Nguyen's trips to Bali, is essential to the complex, delicious flavor of these beef skewers. You'll have extra curry paste left over, and that's a good thing: You can freeze it in ice-cube trays, transfer to freezer bags, and store them in the freezer for up to 2 months for marinades, curries, and more.
