Satay is a Southeast Asian kebab made from seasoned, skewered meat grilled over charcoal until caramelised. It can be found throughout Malaysian hawker stalls in food courts and pasar malam.

The types of satays vary from satay daging (beef), satay kambing (mutton) and satay ayam (chicken). It’s often served with raw onion slices, cucumber and nasi himpit (pressed rice). It is also dipped into a sweet and spicy peanut sauce that elevates its flavour.
