In the Hindu ceremonies of Bali, sate plays an important part. Whilst women twist palm leaves into intricate offerings for the gods, men create elaborate meaty offerings from sate sticks. These represent the animal kingdom to complement the women’s plant kingdom. Of the many varieties, spiced minced fish and prawn sate are extra special. Wrapped around a stick of lemongrass, they are best eaten with your fingers to get the full fragrant citrus hit.
