The dish

About sate kambing

Sate kambing is goat grilled over charcoal and served swimming in sweet soy with raw shallot, tomato and bird’s eye chili. Lean goat is modest; the fat pieces between the meat and the sweet soy sauce add the rest. Built from its parts: ten sticks of grilled mutton satay at the stick size of resepkoki.id’s version (500 g meat for 20 sticks), sweet soy, shallot, tomato, chili and cabbage — from MyFCD, TKPI and USDA values. Fat pieces are not counted, so stalls that thread gajih run higher.

In PlateDiary

A rough number for the dishes you save — only if you want one.

Off unless you turn them on

Calories in PlateDiary are off unless you turn them on. Switch them on and, when PlateDiary AI reads your photo of the table, each dish gets one rough “~” number. Accept it or change it; a number you correct is remembered for that dish. With Calories off, the app looks exactly as it did before.

A read sends small pictures of the cut-out dishes, with the place's name as a hint — never the table photo, faces or your location. Calorie numbers never go to analytics, and nothing is written to a health app. PlateDiary AI starts with free tries; here is how it works.
