Madurese cuisine

Madurese cuisine is the culinary tradition of the Madurese people from Madura Island in Indonesia. This cuisine is particularly well-known in the neighboring areas of East Java, as well as on the south coast of Kalimantan. As a leading salt production center in the Indonesian archipelago, Madurese dishes are often saltier compared to Eastern Javanese cuisine, although with significant Javanese influences.

Madurese dishes add petis ikan which despite the name (ikan=fish) is made using shrimp. The Madurese-style satay is probably the most popular satay variants in Indonesia. Some of its popular dishes include chicken satay,[1] mutton satay, Madurese soto, goat soup and peanut sauce.
