This little toastie friend will take you on a trip to Indonesia. In the Netherlands, Indonesian food is quite common. And while I wonder how authentic our current presentation of Indonesian Satay really is, this flavor combination is definitely worth a try! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been thinking about this toastie ever since the beginning of the Toastie Lab. Given my secret-not-so-secret love for peanut butter, Jack\u2019s love for everything spicy and our shared love of toasties, this recipe was an easy deduction: spicy + satay + chicken = our next toastie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Satay Sauce = Peanut Butter? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So, while satay sauce actually includes a little more than just peanuts, it does absolutely use peanut butter as the main ingredient. You could therefore totally use regular satay sauce on this toastie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reason why Jack and I decided to go for peanut butter instead, is because I think it will make it less runny and therefore better for this toastie. And it\u2019s always available in our pantry, so a safe option \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depending on which part of the world you are, you will find satay sauce in many different shapes and colors. With or without additives, with or without milk, with coconut and sugar, or with chiles and garlic. Really, the possibilities with satay sauce are endless!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thai, Malaysian, Singaporean and Indonesian satay sauces (or sate<\/em>), are the most popular ones. Today we\u2019re going for Indonesian, because that\u2019s the one I know best \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, officially satay refers to the entire dish that includes basically any kind of meat or fish that you can think of\u2026 However, the most common way to make satay is with chicken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-> YOU SHOULD TOTALLY TRY THIS ONE WITH SHRIMP!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But actually, that doesn\u2019t even really matter, because we are focusing on satay sauce\u2026 Which is the sauce that is often served with satay. According to Mr. Wikipedia<\/a> (who knew he\u2019s such a  renowned chef, right!?), the main ingredients of Indonesian satay sauce are: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
