🇲🇨 Madura Chicken Satay 📍 Java - Indonesia Satay is a traditional Indonesian dish consisting of skewered meat that's served with a sauce on the side. All types of meat can be used to make satay, even some exotic varieties such as crocodile or snake meat. In most cases, the meat is marinated before grilling. Marinades vary, but typically include dark soy sauce, sugar, garlic, lime juice, and other seasonings. It is believed that satay originated in the Indonesian region of Java and that it was developed under the influence of Muslim traders who migrated from India. Another theory claims that satay was created in the 19th century by Indonesian street vendors as a variation on Indian kebabs. The theory is supported by the fact that satay became popular when Muslim and Arab immigrants had populated those areas. From the moment it originated in Java, satay quickly spread throughout Southeast Asia, and eventually all over the world. In Indonesia, it has become a national dish and nowadays it can be found everywhere, from street vendors to high-class restaurants. The most common sauces served with satay are peanut, soy, or pineapple sauce. 📷All rights and credits reserved to the respective owner(s) #chefs #culinary #cheflife #food #cuisine #cheftalk #cruiselife #hospitalityindustry #cruiselife #foodindustry #hotelier #gastronomie #foodlovers #foodporn #foodie #foodies #food #agriculture #restaurant #cruiseindustry #cateringservice #cateringindustry #foodindustry #finedining #hotel
