- 4 Transfer to a saucepan, then add warm water, sweet soy sauce, palm sugar, and salt.
- 5 Cook over low heat, stirring, until thickened.
- 6 Add the lime juice and adjust the seasoning to taste.
- 7 Grill the satay over hot charcoal or on a grill pan.
- 8 Brush with sweet soy sauce while grilling.

- 10 Serve the satay with peanut sauce and lontong.
- 11 Complete with sliced shallots, tomato, cucumber, and sweet soy sauce.
💡 Tips
• Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes so they don't burn.
• Charcoal embers give the most authentic satay aroma — a grill pan can be used as an alternative.
• Don't make the peanut sauce too thin — it should cling nicely to the satay.
