SAUTEED LEMONGRASS (NON-SPICY SHACHA SAUCE)
Lemongrass is a medicinal plant that has been shown to help inhibit the growth of some bacteria and yeast. Additionally, lemongrass contains compounds that are supposed to relieve pain and swelling, decrease fever, improve blood sugar and cholesterol levels, stimulate the uterus and menstrual flow, and act as an antioxidant.
Sauteed Lemongrass (Non-Spicy Shacha Sauce) is a necessary condiment in vegetarian cuisine, especially when stir-frying mixed mushrooms with lemongrass, frying tofu with satay sauce, or steaming young tofu with satay sauce. Additionally, they may be used as a marinade for absolutely stunning vegetarian grilled foods. Lemongrass is minced and sautéed until fragrant and slightly salty, making it an indispensable seasoning for vermicelli, pho, and noodle soups. A teaspoon of sauteed lemongrass significantly improves the flavor of your cuisine.

PREPARATION
-
How to Minced Lemongrass: Trim lemongrass by cutting off the spiky top and enough of the bottom so that you no longer see a woody core. Peel off a few of the outer layers until you’re left with just the tender heart of the stalk.
-
For infusions, bruise the stalk by smashing it under the side of a cleaver or chef’s knife. For easy removal from a pot of hot liquid, tie the whole stalk into a-knot, or cut it into smaller lengths for straining out.
-
To mince lemongrass, slice the stalk thinly crosswise and then chop through the-slices until they’re minced.
-
INSTRUCTIONS
-
In a saucepan over high heat, heat 1 cup of cooking oil. Add the minced garlic and shallots and sauté until aromatic. Following that, add the minced lemongrass and season with 2 tablespoons of salt to taste.
-
Stir-fry the lemongrass mixture until aromatic and any excess oil has been drained. Allow it to cool completely before storing it in jars (boxes) for use in cooking.
-
Note: Add chili to the stir-fry if you prefer it spicy. You can preserve this lemongrass satay in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks in an airtight jar!
