Chicken Satay?!

Tegellan · Post by **Tegellan** » July 5, 2004, 6:45 pm

Been experimenting a bit with this, but not had the best of luck.

Does anyone have a good recipe for this? Preferably not too complicated, but i would like to make the peanut sauce and marinade myself.

Any help is appreciated.

marinade is pretty basic thai, or mine is anyway. Oil, fish sauce, tumeric, lil sugar, garlic and ginger (galanga if you can find it)

I eye so much it's nuts but this'll be about right, but I also went thru my notes and realized I have been slacking, this is how it's done at the old Thai place I worked years and years ago(yes I was the lone whiteboy in the kitchen)

1/2 C coconut milk
1 1/2 tsp fish sauce
1 tsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp corriander
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp tumeric
