“We made chicken satay with brown rice. For the sauce and marinade we used: low salt soy sauce peanut butter lemon garlic ginger tomato paste coconut milk turmeric chilli powder snd salt to taste. I ended up having the portion below and some extra chicken and rice - I would say 1/5 of the below. This was super delicious and filling!”
