Place this in a mixing bowl and stir in all the other ingredients, mixing well.
Place all the mushroom strips in this marinade and leave for at least 30 minutes.
PEANUT SAUCE: In a wok or frying pan/skillet, heat the oil, add the curry paste and fry briefly until it blends with the oil.
Add the coconut milk, lower the heat and stir well until a rich red colour appears.
add the remaining ingredients, stirring constantly until a thick sauce is formed, and set aside.
Take the mushroom strips from the marinade and thread each one on to a satay stick.
Grill/broil until cooked through. Serve with the peanut sauce and fresh cucumber pickle.
Little triangles of toast may also be served for those who wish to mop up more sauce.
