This chicken satay purchased at Pak Udin satay stalls on the edge of the highway near my house, satay is burned on charcoal flavored with nuts paste. I ate it with boiled spinach and a few extra sprouts.
The fruit is in my country named kelengkeng, or it could be shortened to Lengkeng, in English is called Longan, and in other countries this fruit has another name (you can look it up on google search). This fruit has a light brown color hard skin, to peel it you can use the tip of your fingernail to tear the skin that thin but hard, in inside you'll find white flesh fruit with a chewy texture and sweet taste, and in the middle you'll find the seeds of this fruit that round black and very hard, you can use these seeds as a substitute for marbles, or if you are fad, you can use it to tossed someone's head (not recommended). When I eat this fruit sometimes not aware if I almost spent all the contents of the basket, this fruit has a distinctive taste and I love it.
This dish is called Gado-gado in my country, a mix of steamed vegetables flavored with peanut sauce. This is actually a Javanese version of Gado-gado where the peanut sauce is made separately and will be poured right before serving. How to make it is very easy, you can use any kind of vegetables that you like in this dish, in the image is used bean sprouts, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes and tofu, all except tomatoes and tofu boiled until cooked, tofu fried in vegetable oil, and raw tomatoes sliced. the peanut sauce can be made from ready-made peanut seasoning block which is diluted with water, or you can make it yourself from peanuts that crushed in a blender or pestle and mortar then diluted it with water after crushed well. Served with hot rice and you can added with boiled eggs if you like.
Today is the first day of fasting, so I ate just before dawn, called "Sahur." Today's menu is a Bakso and Unskewered Satay, Bakso is meatballs with broth, and the satay is slices of chicken meat that roasted with skillet, different from usual skewered satay that grilled over the coals, served with soy sauce mixed with chili and red onions. Happy fasting for those who do it
