Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Lemongrass | 1 1/2 stalks |
| Shallots | 6 |
| Garlic Cloves | 5 |
| Fresh Coriander Leaves | 3 sprigs |
| Hot Chili Sauce | 1 tablespoon |
| Cumin Seeds | 2 teaspoons |
| Turmeric | 1/4 teaspoon |
| Water | 1 cup |
| Dried Shrimp Paste | 1 tablespoon |
| Coconut Milk | 2 cups |
| Brown Sugar | 1/3 cup |
| Salt | 1 teaspoon |
| Roasted Unsalted Peanuts | 3/4 cup |
Instructions:
-
Begin by peeling the coarse outer layer from the lemongrass and removing the tough tops, saving them for a potential soup stock.
-
Chop the tender lemongrass stalks into 1-inch lengths.
-
In the workbowl of a food processor, combine lemongrass, shallots, garlic, fresh coriander leaves, hot chili sauce, cumin seeds, and turmeric. Whirl the ingredients into a fine paste, adding water if needed.
-
Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium setting, add the lemongrass paste and dried shrimp paste. Stir and fry for approximately 4 minutes until the mixture emanates a wonderfully aromatic perfume.
-
Stir in half of the coconut milk, and continue cooking while stirring almost constantly for the next 8 minutes.
-
Introduce the remaining coconut milk, sweeten the mixture with brown sugar, and season it with salt.
-
Blend in the roasted unsalted peanuts, adding a delightful nuttiness to the sauce.
-
Taste the sauce at this point and adjust the sweetening, salt, and chili according to your preference.
-
If desired, you can achieve your preferred consistency by thinning the sauce with more coconut milk or water.
-
Congratulations! You’ve just created a sensational Satay Kuah Sauce that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy.
