Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Finely chop the onion and garlic.
- Slice the red pepper into thin strips.
- Grate the ginger root if not already grated.
- Roughly chop the peanuts for garnishing later.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the pork fillets and cook until browned on all sides. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Once browned, transfer the pork fillets to your slow cooker.
- In the same skillet (with the residual oil and pork drippings), add the chopped onion, garlic, and grated ginger.
- Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onions become translucent and the mixture is fragrant.
- Reduce the heat to low, then add the peanut butter, coconut milk, chicken gravy, soy sauce, and salsa sauce.
- Stir well until all the ingredients are fully combined and the sauce has a smooth consistency.
- Pour the prepared sauce over the pork fillets in the slow cooker.
- Add the sliced red pepper on top.
- Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on a low setting for 6-8 hours or on a high setting for 3-4 hours. The pork should be tender and easily shredded with a fork when done.
- Once cooked, turn off the slow cooker and let it sit for a few minutes.
- Transfer the pork fillets onto a serving platter and pour some of the sauce over the top.
- For extra flavor and texture, sprinkle the roughly chopped peanuts over the pork.
- Serve the satay pork with rice, steamed vegetables, or even on a bed of noodles.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or lime wedges for an extra burst of freshness, if desired.
Tips:
- Brown the pork fillets in a pan with olive oil before adding them to the slow cooker. This step enhances the flavor by creating a caramelized exterior.
- For a smoother sauce, finely chop or grate the ginger root.
- If you prefer a spicier dish, add some chili flakes or a fresh chili along with the other ingredients.
- Stir halfway through cooking to ensure all the flavors are well combined and the pork is evenly cooked.
- Garnish with some extra chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro just before serving for added texture and flavor.
- Serve with rice or noodles to soak up the delicious satay sauce.
Cooking slow cooker satay pork is a fantastic way to enjoy a sumptuous meal with minimal effort.
