Satay celup

Satay celup is a traditional dish, particularly popular in the Malacca state (also known as "the historic state"), where it is considered a local favorite. It is a self-serve dish, consisting of skewers of marinated meat, raw seafood, or even vegetables that are dunked into a simmering pot of satay sauce. The sauce is primarily made with peanuts, dried chili peppers, garlic, and palm sugar, but the full recipe differs from one eatery to another. Usually, satay celup is accompanied by barley drinks, coconut water, or herbal tea in order to combat the spiciness of the sauce.
