satay, burning your indulgence to the top!

satay or sate is one of special food in Indonesia..the meat taste, burning smoke, way of burning will indulge every nerves of yours.

It's fun to know if you love eating sate, you certainly found that many variety of sate provided in Indonesia. There are sate Padang, sate Kambing (from goat meat), sate Kelinci (from rabbit meat), sate ayam (from chicken meat), sate domba (from lamb meat), sate sapi (from cow meat), sate babi (from pig meat), sate ikan (from fish).
the most popular one are Sate Kambing (goat), sate ayam (chicken), and sate Padang..they can easily found on the main streets of Jakarta..

Sate are made from slices of meat, they are roughly cutting in thin slices, then it will be sticked to bamboo stick (around 15 cm). the seller then burn it on the burning charcoal..

While sate is half-done, the seller will take it away from the roaster, smear the sauce (peanut sauce + soy sauce) until the sate is greasy enough with the sauce, sluurps! Fun Eating experience is began..
then, sate will be burned again until it is well done. the seller put sate once again into the sauce (peanut butter), put extra soy sauce, stir it together. Done! Sate is ready to be eaten..

As the topping, fried onion will be added on top of it. For extra hot lovers, you can add special satay red chilly on it..Still you have extra appetizer: for more taste, chew slice of green chilly + slice of onion while eating the sate. it will raise unbeatable temptation in eating..

In Indonesia, 1 serving contains 10 sticks of sate, the fun is you can customize it into 15 per serving for extra price. Ooh, for me 10 sticks of sate doesn't make my stomach full, then I ask for extra lontong (steamed rice wrapped with banana leaves) for it. Hmm, Eating is always perfect!

For eating sate ayam and sate kambing, they are familiar to be found at night time..for sate padang can be found at day's time. the seller will go around on streets while yelling "sateeeee" loudly to announce their coming ^_^. it is fun to see the way they yell it.

One kind of fun eating of sate is the aroma..the burnt meat + specific aroma from burning charcoal will float into the environment nearby. I bet You can't resist the tempting aroma..
It doesn't count the fun sound while burning. the flame will produce "tick..tick..tick sound while the seller fan the burning meat on the charcoal. the flame breaks into pieces to the air and produce a view of smoke and flame fragment.

My suggestions: Never miss your cool night without eating 1 serving of sate. The hot burning, the aroma, the taste will melt together to create fun-eating indulgence.
