This is what we call a sweet sate and the chili paste that I add does not really belong in this recipe. Can be made with chicken breasts and then it is called Sate Ayam. Here it usually served with a ketjap peanut sauce and prawn crackers, it can be an appetizer, snack or a side dish when part of an Indonesian rijsttafel. If you cannot get the sweet soy sauce, use regular and add some brown sugar. Marinating time is not included.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin (or chicken breasts)
1 small onion, grated
1 -2 garlic clove, crushed
1/2 cup ketjap manis, sweet soy
salt
white pepper
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 -2 teaspoon sambal oelek (optional) or 1 -2 teaspoon chili paste (optional)
Directions:
1. Cut the pork up, into cubes.
2. Make a marinade from the remaining ingredients.
3. Add the meat and leave to marinate for 30 minutes minimum.
4. Skewer the meat onto metal or bamboo/wooden skewers, if you use the wooden soak for half an hour in water, keep the marinade.
5. Roast them under a grill, in a grill pan or best of all on the barbeque until done, usually about ten minutes or shorter.
6. Baste with the remaining marinade during cooking.
