Nonya Pork Satay Recipe
Skewers of tender pork in a spicy macadamia nut coating. These are meant to be very spicy, but you can lessen the fire by serving this with cucumber chunks.

Very nice!


Yum. I gotta try these. I will make these to impress my foodie brother-in-law.


Interesting interpretation of satay. When you say anchovies do you mean the Italian anchovies packed in oil or something else?

Thanks
