Recently i watched an old episode belonging to the late Anthony Bourdain’s CNN television set show Parts Unknown where by he visited Singapore. Because he explored and ate his way around that city-state, it brought back scrumptious memories of my travels there ages ago.
I, too, ate my way close to Singapore and what I was most fond of ended up being their many hawker colleges. They are outdoor food courts with numerous stalls each offering a different Southeast Asian-style dish, for example chicken rice, fish-head curry along with chili crab.
But what I remember most vividly is the satay. Threading small, marinated items of chicken, meat or fish, or prawns, on bamboo skewers is how satay is made. When you see them cooking with a grill in Singapore during the night time, the combination with the sultry tropical air, the orangey light in the charcoal-fuelled flames, the alluring scent from the bamboo and the appearance in the mouth-watering, sizzling satay all combine to make you need to eat them, now.
Just thinking of these folks again made we aim for some and, with no current plans to arrive at Singapore, I made my. You’ll find the recipe below in addition to one for peanut sauce, for dipping.
Before threading to the marinated chicken, you should soak the bamboo skewers in water to assist prevent them from finding on fire when set about the grill. But even whenever you do that they still can ignite. That explains why in Singapore the thing is that grills with a much time narrow strip of metallic about 10 to 20 centimetres wide on just one side. When the satay is defined on the grill, the meat portion is placed over the fire. The wood portion rests on the fire-insulted strip of sheet metal, preventing the exposed portion of the skewer from getting on fire.
As noted inside a previous story on satay, for you to recreate this on my own propane barbecue, I set a 2 bottle thick strip of light weight aluminum foil of similar width on the front portion of my personal grill. I then heat the actual grill to medium-high along with set the meat portion on the skewer over the flame, and the meatless end for the foil. This technique, as well as soaking the skewers with water, should prevent the exposed parts of wood from igniting.
