Note: if you don't have macadamia nuts sub peanuts. Passive time includes marinade time. servings is a guesstimate since i eat loads at once of these."

Don't let the amount of ingredients put you off, this is easy to put together and delicious! The only ingredient I couldn't get was the kaffir lime leaves and I just used some lemon zest instead. I grilled the satays in the oven and served it up with some plain basmati rice and a cool cucumber salad. -
Wonderful dish! The meat was great tasting without the dipping sauce, but the sauce really added an extra punch to the meal. I am going to try this with chicken also! And the sauce would be great hot over rice. -
These were great and I felt as though I were off in the far away lands of Africa while eating them. A very authentic tasting recipe with many authentic ingredients. The only thing I didn't use was lemongrass as the Oriental market was out (but they did have the Kaffir leaves!) and my plant isn't big enough to cut yet. I halved the recipe for myself and my daughter. Although this didn't get posted in time for the tour, I made this during ZWT4 while traveling around with the fabulous Babes of Zaarland.

I made chicken & beef they were spot on. (as per my bf words) the dipping sauce is fantastic. It would be good as a dip to. bf father took some sauce home to have on his roast tonight.

I am a middle aged foodie who has had the luxury of living all over the world except asia. Lived in or grew up in Nigeria, Kenya, Chicago, Russia,and haiti. born in New Zealand, brother born in Austria and many more.
I have chronic medication resistant depression after 10 years on anti depressants that worked well but would stop working after a year or two, so now do my best at home living on disabilty. Not a bad thing, many have far worse health issues but i have been able to concentrate on food/cooking.
My main passions are my cats. I live in the woods and somehow many starving strays or "dumps" have found the message babies who passed on left in the woods saying "suck lives at xxxx road. Most arrive sick and/or starving. Right now i have 2 that arrived with feline herpes and their attendant 2ndry bacterial infections but are doing beautifully. One old man who was going to be euthanized bc a lady who found him as a stray was moving and didnt want him...well he was a biter and rather grumpy who was in ICU for 3 days with a deadly gut infection which was fixed but he left with a diagnosis of diabetes. 3 months on insulin and finally diet controlled and he caught the herpes virus, respiratory symptom version and turned into a cuddler. Butterscotch must think "why didnt i figure out this cuddle stuff was great before i got sick!" Doing wonderfully even though he has bouts. he and the other kids are my babies. Sadly Butterscotch died of Lymphatic cancer in winter of 2008. A year before Big Boy arrived in my life, starving and weak. Full of affection he jumped into my arms and stayed, turns out he has FIV (cat hiv) so he needs to be watched closely. I love him dearly
