Sate Godok Aceh - Skewerless Acehnese Beef Satay
Across Indonesia, there are probably as many variation of sate as there are soto, and one of the most unique one is sate godok from the province of Aceh. Despite the many variations of sate, most still follows the same way of cooking, namely skewering the meat then grill until tender and juicy. Not so with sate godok, its uniqueness lies in the fact that the meat is slowly cooked in spices and peanut sauce until tender and sauce is reduced, thick, creamy, and oily sheen has developed. Personally, this is a sate to make when I am lazy, hehe, no need for skewers, and it is as easy as making a stew, just dump everything in a pot, and let the whole thing simmers away until the meat is super tender and juicy. Not to mention I get to eat a whole pot of peanut sauce with steamed white rice, yummy. ♥

Mbak Anita, kalo mao Bikin resep ini Gak ada jinten ama Adas manis, boleh di skip gak...Terus ganti ama Ayam Gitu caranya sama gak...soalnya tekstur Ayam ama lembu laen tuh... Thanks a lot.
Halo Ling, masakan Aceh emang pemakaian bumbu dan rempah-rempah lebih banyak biasanya :) Tapi kalo jinten dan adas manis mau diskip, aku pikir hasilnya juga akan enak, paling tidak semedok kalau ada. Kalau pake ayam juga bisa, tapi waktu masaknya pasti lebih singkat yah, kemungkinan cuma perlu 15-30 menit, bukan 45-60 menit.
Ooo...ok Anita..,thankss alot... Love your website so much
Hallo Anita, Mau tanya, beef yang dipakai harus yang untuk stew atau bisa yang untuk stir fry? Thank you so much.. :)
Hi Sherly, kalo beef untuk stew potongannya lebih kubus dan tebal yah, jadi waktu masaknya perlu lama di step 3. Kalo pake beef cut untuk stir fry umumnya tipis-tipis, dan hanya perlu dimasak sebentar saja. Kalau memang mau pakai stir fry cuts sih bisa juga, tapi saran aku, masak dulu sausnya di step 3 itu tanpa daging sapi hingga saus sudah berkurang dan agak berminyak bahkan, barulah ditambah daging sapinya. Begitu daging sapi terlihat matang, langsung buru-buru masukkan ground peanut dan aduk rata saja. Semoga berguna. :)
