but yet a lot of fun trying to come up with recipes / menus for The Boys on Letti Thursday. I had made Satay for David before, but not for the FIL and BIL. So that's what we had for Thursday - Chicken Satay with Peanut Gravy/ Dipping Sauce, DIY Nasi Himpit ( Compressed Rice ) and a cucumber / onion relish. The boys enjoyed it and I got to have a taste of home :)
Starting off with generic white rice from good ol' Wally World
Cooked with extra water and stuffed into sandwich bags and stored in the fridge the night before
Right before serving, breaking it out of the sandwich bags and cutting it up into cubes and reheated in the microwave
Voila, home made compressed rice with a pinch of salt and a bit of coconut milk
Chicken pieces marinating in the mix
Skewered and ready for the grill
YUMMY
Peanut Sauce for dipping
( I would have made this hotter/spicier but didn't think that would go down well with da boyz )
Served with Cut Cucumbers and Onions in Vinegar
Ta Da
( can you believe that's one whole bag of boneless skinless chicken breast from walmart? )

That looks absolutely delicious, Letti. I know Chad'll be wanting me to make some for him once he sees your blog entry. He loved the satay he had when he was visiting me in Singapore. I have a strong feeling that I'll be calling on you for some tips and advice one day soon when I try to make some myself.

That meal looks so delicious! I may have to try to make that myself. I have made a similar cucumber dish but with white onions-I'll have to try it with the red ones. Hope you have a great weekend and great weather! Jeff
