    This would have to be one of my favourite slow cooker meals it was absolutely worth the effort! ?

  2. Donna

    Fabulous!!! Clean plates at the dinner table from all my fussy eaters yay!!

  3. Sarah De Boar

    would definitely need to have at least 1kg of meat for us (including left overs) would i need to double absolutely everything? thanks 🙂

    1. Paulene @ Slow Cooker Central

      I would … except probably the cornflour to thicken may not need full double of that

    Have not cooked for a while, but it came back as a true favourite.

    I added juice of 1/2 a lime and half a chicken stock cube (dissolved in a boiling water) at the end to enhance the flavour a bit more – YUM
    great simple recipe will use again thanks!

    A big winner in my household, served it with rice this evening. Such an easy dish to make, I will definitely be making this one again!

    So, I made this for the family the other night. 15 yo daughter who declared that she doesn’t eat beef
    was the first to say this dish is ” a keeper “. It was delicious.

    so want to make this but my husband doesnt like coconut milk – what can i do instead?

  9. Denise Roberts

    I made this for my dad. He thoroughly enjoyed it. I doubled the recipe so he could have some frozen meals of it as well. I did not double the cornflour. Next time I’m going to use half smooth peanut butter and half crunchy just to see what that’s like. I’ll also add extra peanut butter. 😉

    I made this and the satay was yummy. I only had coconut cream so used more peanut butter and soya sauce. Husband loved it ( me too!!) he came back for seconds. Thanks Simon

    So Good!! Used veggies i had on hand – carrot, broccoli and brown onion and served with brown rice. Had all empty bowls and no complaints!.
    Will probably use a little less corn flour and add a little chilli to mine next time as I like a little fire in mine.

  13. Kate

    Can it be cooked on low for 6hrs?

    1. Paulene @ Slow Cooker Central

      If you are going to double the intended cooking time I would definitely skip the browning stage as that will help it cook longer 🙂

  14. Paulene

    Enjoyed it again tonight
    Skipped the browning (but still floured it)
    Doubled everything (except the cornflours)
    Left out the liquid chicken stock & instead added 2tsp dry chicken stock powder to 400ml coconut cream instead 🙂

  15. Kylie

    Amazing. I didn’t add capsicum as not a fan of it. Hubby devoured his in a flash

    Sooo yummy!! I made this with Gravy Beef and replaced the onion and spring onions with a leek and cooked it for 6 hours on low. Served with cauliflower mash and roast pumpkin, carrot, yams and parsnip. Definitely be making again.

    This recipe is on our favourite list.
    Due to food allergies, I used arrowroot flour instead of cornflour ,I also add a large carrot . If I want to add a little heat, I will add 1 Tbspn of sweet chili sauce. The sweet chil sauce adds just enough chili to keep eveyone in the family happy.

    Nice easy tasty recipe. Was a little thick, maybe I will use less cornflour next time. I added a little more water. Also added some chilli. Husband loved it (& he’s not a fan of satay sauce, so I didn’t tell him😆)

    I changed this a little. I used 1.3kg chicken breast sliced like stir fry instead of beef. I didn’t toss in cornflour or brown first. I used 3 Capsicum cut into wedges, 2 Onions cut into wedges and 4 spring Onions. 500ml chicken stock, 6T peanut butter, 1 can coconut milk, 4T soy sauce, 2t brown sugar, 3 heaped dessertspoons cornflour, 3 heaped teaspoons each of minced ginger and garlic and 1t chilli flakes.
    Put it all in slow cooker and cooked 4 hours on low.
    it made 5 meals for 2 (generous) served with steamed stir fry veggies and cauliflower Rice
    delicious
    next time I might add a bit more chilli because it was mild but still delicious
