Notes......
Satay sauce mixture or seasoning also can be found in several Indonesian or Asian supermarket. This will reduce time in making Satay sauce and seasoning, it will be easier in adjusting the right flavour too! However the grilling and skewing process might take awhile. Therefore prepare to be more than an hour in the kitchen...! Good luck to all of you. Hopefully it will be one of your favourite dish! ^^
