Sate Ayam & Gado Gado

This is one of my favourite dishes that Johannes prepares.  It's from Indochef and so delicious that I just can't get enough.  


Sate Ayam 
Similar to kabobs, but so much better!!


Ingredients:
1 lb Chicken


Marinade:
1 Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 ounce Dark Soya sauce
1 teaspoon Coriander powder
1 teaspoon Lemon Grass
1 teaspoon Hot Chili paste
1 glass Red Wine (optional)
1 ounce Water


Preparation:

  1. Dice the meat into 3/4 inch square cubes and put onto bamboo skewers (about 4 per stick).
  2. Combine all the marinade ingredients into a food processor and make into a smooth paste.  
  3. Pour this over the prepared sate's and leave to marinade for at least 2 hours.
  4. Cook the sate's on the barbeque or under the grill for 5-10 minutes until done and serve with hot Peanut Sauce.



Gado-Gado:
Indonesian vegetable salad.  The vegetables used are a suggestion, you can use nearly anything that is available to you.  Use at least 3 different vegetables.

Ingredients:
White cabbage, diced
Green Beans
Bean Sprouts
2 Eggs, hard boiled
Peanut Sauce
Tomatoes
Prawn Crackers

Preparation:
  1. Separately cook all the vegetables lightly.  They must still retain a nice crunch.
  2. Drain and arrange the vegetables in layers on a dish.
  3. Pour the peanut sauce over the vegetables.
  4. Decorate with the sliced egg and tomatoes.
  5. Just before serving, sprinkle the crackers over the sauce.
Best enjoyed when the salad is cooled down.
