Amazing Malaysian satay. Warming, nutty, delicious!
Brilliant even when pan fried instead of grilled! The peanut sauce is incredibly addictive, goes brilliantly with the cucumbers.
We're loving the effort put into your presentation - thanks for sharing!

Great to hear! Happy spicing!
Surprisingly easy to make and very tasty. The weather was not quite BBQ friendly so cooked under the grill. Looking forward to trying this on the BBQ.
Still looks great from here - nice one! Happy spicing!
