Peel and clean all ingredients, no need to chop finely yet.

If using fresh coconut, clean it well. You can also use dried coconut from stores.

Place the ground chicken into a food processor to achieve the right consistency for wrapping around the skewer.

Chop all spices and condiments very finely, including fresh coriander and black pepper seeds.

Crush the black pepper seeds and candlenut very finely.

Add a little palm sugar to the mixture.

Add shrimp paste and more grated coconut to the mixture along with finely chopped kaffir lime leaves.

Season the mixture with salt and pepper, and add a little homemade coconut oil.

Wrap a dollop of the chicken mixture around the soaked bamboo skewer, ensuring it adheres well.

Grill the skewers on a BBQ or a common Indonesian grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning them to achieve a golden color on all sides.
