Hi Friends!
Hope this finds you well ?
What are you guys into (movie-wise) lately? I started watching Silicon Valley, sooo funny yet frustrating at the same time. Seems like the main characters always have bad luck ????
I have an Indonesian food recipe today. Last leg of Summer, so we are using the BBQ pit as much as we can ? So….today’s recipe is satay recipe. There’s a known satay from Bali, called Sate Pajegan.
Here are the ingredients! May seem a lot, but super simple to make. I do have to mention, obviously in Indonesia, we would use fresh spices. Here in Canada, I mainly have the powder form ?
- 5 dried kafir lime leaf
- 1/8 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/8 tsp ginger powder
- 1/8 tsp galangal powder
- 1/4 tsp cayenne powder
- 1/2 tsp dries crushed chilies
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp ground coriander
- 3 candlenut
- 5 garlic
- 1/2 large onion
- Water as needed
- 1.2 kg boneless, skinless, chicken breast
- 1 – 2 tbsp coarse Kosher salt (depending on how much water you used for the paste)
- 2 generous pinches of white pepper powder
Peanut Sauce
- 1 c roasted and salted peanuts
- 1/3 c x 3 water (thick or thin sauce depending what you like)
- Cayenne powder, to taste
- Garlic powder, to taste
- 2 envelopes of sweetener (or sugar, white or palm sugar, to taste and/or add sweet soy sauce, such as Indonesian ABC brand) – my husband is on keto, hence sweetener hahaha
- Lime juice, to taste
