Beef Sate Maranggi

Notes, Tips & Tricks Originated in Indonesia, satay is a widely renowned in almost all regions of the country and is getting more popular arround the world. It is considered to be a national dish and one of Indonesia's best dishes. In Indonesia, satay can be obtained from a travelling satay vendor, from a street-side tent-restaurant, in an upper-class restaurants, or during traditional celebration feasts. If common Indonesian Sate are mostly made from chicken or lamb fillet, Sate Maranggi is one exception which made from beef meat. Sate Maranggi is also one of the 30 Indonesian Culinary Icons. It is a good choice for whom doesn't keen of Lamb meat ;-). It is usually served with either with peanut sauce or Sambal Kecap, an Indonesian relish made from sweet soy sauce, chilli, sliced shallots and diced tomatoes. Eventhough most of indonesian satay sauce are made from peanut paste as basic ingredient, however seasonings or spice will vary slightly by region. The main characteristic of Sate Maranggi is the composition of shallots, garlic, coriander & palm sugar for marinating ingredients. This is also one of my family choice of many Indonesian Satay's version. The combination of Garlic, Coriander, Palm Sugar and a tamarind juice tastes just perfect ;-) For you who are keen of Indonesian Satays, you can also try Sate a la Madura or Sate Ayam Jawa.
