Cooking Instructions
- 1
Boil the clams with water in a pot over medium heat. Add shallots and lemongrass. Boil for a maximum of 7 minutes in a covered pot, just until it briefly boils. Do not exceed 10 minutes as the clams will shrink and lose their juiciness. Then drain the clams from the boiling water, and once cool enough, remove the clams from their shells. Set aside.
- 2
Tip 1: Ensure the clams used for this clam satay are live and in shells. If using pre-shelled clams available in the market, the results will not be the same and less satisfying.
Tip 2: There's no need to wait for all clams to open; unopened clams are still cooked and can be easily opened by hand.
- 3
Blend the spice paste ingredients using a blender, adding a little water to facilitate the blending process.
- 4
Heat cooking oil in a pan and sauté the spice paste along with kaffir lime leaves, turmeric leaf, asam kandis, and lemongrass until cooked, approximately until it becomes slightly oily.
- 5
Add thick coconut milk, cook over low heat, stirring continuously to prevent the coconut milk from breaking. Cook until the coconut milk is cooked and thickened.
- 6
Add the clams and toasted grated coconut. Stir until the spices are absorbed, about 5 minutes. Then, add salt. Adjust the taste.
- 7
Once the clams are slightly cool, using plastic gloves, skewer the clams with bamboo sticks, arranging 7-8 clams per skewer (depending on the size of the clams).
- 8
The clam satay is ready to be enjoyed with hot rice, as a side dish for vegetable rice cake, coconut rice, or yellow rice. Or as a snack.

Sate Lilit (Satay Lilit Bali) Sate Lilit (Satay Lilit Bali)
This is originally from Bali. I've never been to Bali myself, but I did ask around and did a mini research of how this should taste.It all started when my mom visited me and brought 3 fillets of Tenggiri (Big Mackerel). At that week I was craving sate lilit after watching a culinary program on tv.This is my first time making this dish and it tasted quite awesome. I followed the simpliest recipe by ditching some spices that I don't think needed much (a judgemental side of me you have to deal with). Every family has their own version so the rule is there is no rule. You can use fish or chicken, even my friend said she use tofu for vegan option.As a javanese person like me, this dish turned out to be not sweet enough. Hence I even dipped it in sweet soysauce sambal 😂 Balinese people usually make sambal matah for a condiment.If you make the sate in mini one bite size, I think this is perfect for appetizer 😉If you recook it, please share and let me know 🙆

Sate Lilit Bali (Indonesian Balinese Fish satay) Sate Lilit Bali (Indonesian Balinese Fish satay)
Bali is the most famous island in Indonesia for the rest of the world. And its most popular dish is probably "sate lilit". Literally "lilit" means to wrap. Lemongrass stem or bamboo skewer is wrapped with fish, chicken, or even turtle flesh, seasoned with bumbu base ganep.Bumbu base ganep is Balinese philosophical seasoning mix made out of garlic, shallots, white galangal, tumeric, ginger, black galangal, candlenut, lemongrass stem, chili, palm sugar, salt, shrimp paste, and oil. In Balinese belief, cooking is an act of worshipping and thanking for the good life, thus each of the herbs represents one god.Since I discovered that the toko near me has these herbs, I happily experimented with this dish. However I didn't use all of the herbs since I think it would be too strong for my Dutch husband's tongue.I used the fragrant lemongrass stems as the accent of the dish's aroma.

I had this in Bali! Satay! Indonesian Yakitori I had this in Bali! Satay! Indonesian Yakitori
I was wondering what type of dish would go well with the nasi goreng (Indonesian fried rice) that I had made and then I thought of this satay! The marinade and dipping sauce are all approximate amounts, so adjust the richness and whatnot to suit your tastes!The ingredients can be found at the import store 'Kaldi.' There really aren't any special tips. Just marinate well before grilling! If you don't have a yakitori grill, you can use a fish grill or a regular grill, or even the frying pan! For 2 servings.

Mini Sate Maranggi -- Marinated Indonesian Satay Mini Sate Maranggi -- Marinated Indonesian Satay
This satay is one of traditional dishes in West Java province. Usually, other satays use peanut sauce. Since the meat is marinated for at least an hour (overnight, in my case), this kind of satay is already savory. Usually we eat this with sambal and acar tomat (pickled tomatoes) and steamed rice. I like to use mini skewers for this one, but of course you can use regular-sized skewers. You can grill this satay but you can also cook sate maranggi in a pan. This is my version of sate maranggi.

Coconut Curry Chicken Satay Coconut Curry Chicken Satay
Satay (or sate) is basically your generally Southeast Asian grilled skewer or kabob, prepared in a variety of ways throughout the region, and often served with a dipping sauce on the side.I pulled my influences from Thai and Vietnamese cuisines to come up with this version which includes a little coconut milk in the marinade, which can either help chicken breast meat retain moisture or soften the slightly stronger and gamier flavor of dark meat, depending on which you use.Now, you will not hear me talking about the upsides of chicken breast meat too often, but one upside of using breast meat in this application is that it cooks very quickly, and when you have lots of skewers to cook for a crowd, it speeds up the cooking time by about a third.This recipe serves 8 to 10 as appetizers (about 30 skewers) and is easily halved.
