00:00Satay is popular during Ramadan and Hari Raya, but for one family, it represents a legacy
00:11treasured all year round.
00:14Get to know Satay Family.
00:16As its name suggests, it's a business operated by a large, close-knit family.
00:21My father started and operated Satay Family.
00:25His name is Abdul Samad bin Abu Wahab, also known as Sidiq.
00:29It started in the 1980s.
00:33We were still young at the time.
00:37There were 10 of us.
00:39We were involved from a young age.
00:42We had to handle everything.
00:44My brother was in charge of cutting, I was in charge of packing.
00:49My sister was in charge of the kitchen.
00:53We had a sweet memory.
00:56We worked with our family, we did everything with our family.
00:59We started with our family when we were young.
01:04We processed with our family.
01:05After processing, we sold it to our family.
01:08So, we have a connection with our family.
01:12It is the same today with all 10 siblings helping in the business.
01:17Nine of them work full-time.
01:20They operate two outlets in Klang and one in Mutiara Damansara,
01:24offering five varieties of satay –
01:26chicken, beef, mutton, rabbit and beef's intestines.
01:32But Satay Family had humble beginnings.
01:35It started with Sidiq operating a stall in Klang,
01:38serving only beef and chicken satay.
01:41In the early days, Sidiq would prepare the satay by hand
01:45with help from his wife and children.
01:47Today, the use of machinery has made the production process more efficient.
01:52First, we enter the raw cold room.
01:56From there, we take out the raw material and put it into Production 1.
01:59Production 1 is the process of cutting.
02:02So, the cutting and marinating are all done in one room.
02:05After the marinating, we go back to the cold room.
02:08The marinated satay is put into the cold room
02:10to be marinated for 24 or 48 hours.
02:13After that, it is brought to the milling machine.
02:17This is the process of milling the land.
02:20Their satay is juicy, flavourful and generously sized,
02:24perfect when enjoyed with peanut sauce and soft lontong.
02:29Although Sidiq passed away in 2023,
02:32his legacy continues to thrive through Satay Family.
02:37Alhamdulillah, this is one of my father's and my family's wishes.
02:42We hope that this will continue for the next generation of business.
02:48After the second generation,
02:50we hope that the third generation will continue this business.
03:12Alhamdulillah, this is one of my father's and my family's wishes.
