Sate kere

Sate kere is a traditional dish and a type of satay associated with Solo city (Surakarta). The name of the dish literally means poor man's satay because in the past, satay was an expensive dish prepared with beef or chicken, so the poor learned to make it with leftover offal or tempeh gambus, a byproduct of making tofu. The pieces of offal or tempeh gambus are placed on skewers, then grilled. When served, sate kere is traditionally accompanied by a special peanut sauce with chili peppers and shallots. Although it's inexpensive, sate kere is the favorite dish of Indonesian President Joko Widodo.
