I've called this a satay but I suppose it is actually not a satay. A satay would be grilled on a barbecue I imagine. It's already plant based, instead of the traditional meat satay. I'll just give it a name to describe what it looks like okay?
This is my take on a dish I had in Bali Indonesia, at a Waroeng called Sibogana in Ubud. I have no idea what it was made from but it was plant based, and it was made from minced items then put on skewers. It was a relaxing place with a great atmosphere. The food was nice and these skewers were what stuck in my mind the most. They were deep fried but I allow that for myself, from time to time.
Using items available from the local grocers and my kitchen, I came up with mushrooms as the first thought. I bought cremini and oysters. There's not much to choose from that is affordable.
I happened to have a piece of tempeh in the fridge. I thought why not pay tribute with it. Indonesia has the best tempeh in the world.
I could have used beans but tempeh is good for absorbing flavours. I decided to grind it up into a mince.
The ingredients were simple. I could have made these super spicy, but I wanted to make them resemble what I remember of the ones in Bali. They were not spicy but flavorful.
The only items I cooked before adding to the mix, was the onion and garlic.
Cooking the onion and garlic would contribute to the moisture in the mix along with the moisture from the mushrooms.
I put the cremini mushrooms in the processor to mince.
I only minced the cremini and left the oyster mushrooms whole. Oyster mushroom have a bit of a meaty texture which I decided to keep in.
Then I minced the tempeh but not too fine. I kept it some what like a ground meat texture.
Tempeh can turn into a paste if you keep it in the processor to long.
I needed some kind of binder so I opted for ground red lentils. Chickpea flour or rice flour would be okay as well I imagine. It's just that I have a ridiculous amount of red lentils.
When I worked at the restaurant that closed, I ordered several kilos. I paid the company price for it. Now I'm stuck with too many. What is shown in my hands is not all of it.
It works great in place of chickpea or garbanzo bean flour. It kind of tastes similar but milder in my opinion.
Red lentils are easy and fast to grind in a small blender or bullet blender.
This lentil flour will absorb the liquid and cook in the liquid from the mushrooms and other items, binding everything together. This is what is so great about these lentils.
Vegan minced satay
Tempeh 230 g
Cremini mushrooms 230g
Oyster mushrooms 230g
Red lentils 150g
Carrot grated 100g
Onion 150 g
Garlic 20g
Onion powder 1 tsp
Garlic powder 1 tsp
Paprika 1 tsp
White pepper 1 tsp
Black pepper 1 tsp
Thyme 1 tsp
Toasted ground cumin 1 tsp
Salt to taste
I'm sure that chili, ginger, shallot, cilantro and other warm spices would be a great addition as well.
The grated carrots are added raw for texture and moisture.
I did not add any liquid to this mix. I wasn't sure at first if I would have to but I got lucky. The moisture from all of the items were perfectly sufficient.
The oyster mushrooms are quite delicate. I didn't want to mince away their texture so I just mixed them in breaking them.
I added part of the red lentil flour then mixed to see if I needed more. It was eventually all thrown in. I was amazed at my estimation. I didn't need more and it wasn't too much.
The mixture was mixed well then squeezed into long football shapes similar to the ones I have had. I guess they were a little rounder then the satay in Bali but it didn't matter.
I fried them enough to brown them all over then finished them in the oven at around 350F.
The peanut sauce was simple with ingredients that I had in the fridge. This would probably differ from peanut sauce found in Indonesia but it really did the job and it takes minutes.
Peanut sauce
Peanut butter 100g
Soy sauce or tamari 50g
Vegetarian mushroom sauce 20g
Garlic 20g
Ginger 5g
Agave 40g
Vinegar 20g
Lime juice 30g
Sesame oil 5g
Water 30g
This is a basic recipe. You could make it thinner or spicier by adding chilies or extra water, adjusting the flavors according to your liking.
The garlic and ginger were fried in a saucepan first then the rest of the ingredients were added and brought to a mild boil. It was stirred until smooth. I didn't put it in the blender as I sometimes do. I was going for a less liquid sauce.
If I were at a park and had my barbecue going, I would have put these on the grill instead of frying. I don't know if it would work but I would try it.
To accompany was broccoli, potato and basmati rice. Everything was good with the peanut sauce.
To make it more like a satay I stuck some large wooden picks in them. This made it easier to dip into the sauce.
With a sprinkle of dried chili flakes I received enough heat. It was barely spicy. Anyone who knows me would wonder how I didn't add more heat to this. I don't always want to have full spice stimulation. Warm spices are like a fiesta. Without them it can be more like a quiet get together. Both could be good.
Some of you won't understand my gibberish so never mind.
I did not eat this plate. This was Marc's plate. He gets to eat the photos.
Thanks for dropping by and have a nice day

lol. This post is perfectly clear! And boy does it ever look good! Good to know about red lentils. I have a couple bags that have been with me for 20 years or more.
So funny Marc gets the plated plate, the pretty one.
Love your food posts. I always learn something new. And wish I lived next door to you!
Oh my gosh!!! those red lentils are a gift. They are good long term storable food for the apocalypse.😄
It's so nice to have you stop by. Thank you so much.😊
It's always my pleasure!
It looks delicious! I love peanuts, so I'm already imagining the combination of these flavors. This is a well put together recipe, thanks for sharing the step by step so well explained. Greetings.
I really appreciate that lovely comment. I love peanuts too! Thank you. Greetings to you too.😊

Your recipes are always wonderful, I enjoy them very much, although there are ingredients like mushrooms or tempeh that are expensive for me, but I will learn to use them if someday I can buy them hehehe. Greetings.

Dear @carolynstahl , this dish that you tried in Bali, Indonesia, in a Waroeng called Sibogana in Ubud, is very interesting and colorful. What happens is that here in Venezuela one is waiting for roasted chicken, meat or fish, now if they are prepared with plants, it must be delicious and very nutritious, added to the relaxing place, I consider that your joy and relaxation it was complete. Your publication is very good, I like these types of foods. successes
I appreciate your very kind and warm comment. Thank you so much. Good wishes to you!😊

Doesn't this just look so appetizing. It's the fact that you took your time to explain the procedures step by step. I really admire that.
Even if I can't replicate this recipe right away due to the scarcity of some of the ingredients, I know that I would love to replicate it someday.

Looking good! First of all, thank you so much for the tip about processing raw red lentils into flour; it looks so easy and perfect for my vegetable patties that I must go get some red lentils right now. Fortunately, you won't need to buy any for the next couple of years, ha ha ha ha... The dish looks like come out of a fancy seaside restaurant in Indonesia. I'm always impressed, @carolynstahl 💚 The vegan satay looks delicious. The peanut sauce just kills me; it looks creamy and with amazing color.
By the way, I confess I'm a fan of fried pasties and croquettes, and of course I try to avoid them, but I don't try too hard 🙈.
Thank you for another delicious post.
You're too kind. I just put them on my plate with a bunch of "stuff". Not too fancy but tasty and homey. I wouldn't have discovered the lentil grinding if I didn't have too many lentils. I always just made soup with them. I like soup but not the same kind all the time.
I love fried things. I always say that if you fry a sock it will taste good. I just don't feel so good after too many times in a row. You know the old saying, everything in moderation. In the end we eat what we want.
Thanks again for your generous comment. have a glorious day!😊
It's the first time I've seen it also haha. I make things like this different all the time, depending on what I have.
Thank you for your nice comment!😊
