Sate Ayam & Gado Gado

This is one of my favourite dishes.  It's from Indochef and so delicious that I just can't get enough. Sate Ayam is similar to kabobs, but so much better!! Gado-Gado is an Indonesian vegetable salad. The vegetables used are a suggestion, you can use nearly anything that is available to you. Use at least 3 different vegetables.
