Why Satay deserves more attention

Satay rarely gets the international recognition it deserves. The complex from slow-cooked rendang complexity is genuine, not simple, and the technique involved in using tempeh correctly takes real skill.

rendang from West Sumatra is consistently voted one of the world's most delicious dishes. I encountered it first in a family feast table and that context helped me understand it properly. kopi tubruk is the natural accompaniment and the combination makes the case for the dish. If you haven't explored this cuisine seriously, Satay is the dish to start with.
