Soak 15 wooden skewers in water to prevent them from burning on the fire. Mix the oil, plum sauce, soy sauce, lemon grass, ginger, one of the chillies and half the chives in a blender. Slice the steak very thinly into strips and thread onto the skewers. Dust the meat with the flour, and then pat on the paste. Braai the skewers on the fire for not more than 2 minutes on each side or shallow fry in a pan. Garnish with sliced chilli and chives.
