This is such a simple, great sauce for so many things. Over Tofu or any other protein. Great over Pasta, or as a dip with veggies - All veggies Hot or Cold

ingredients

  • Perfect Peanut Sauce
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter (natural, no sugar added kind)
  • 2 tsp Tamari (wheat free soy) sauce
  • 1 tbs brown sugar
  • 1 tbs fresh lemon or lime juice
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk (lite is fine, if you prefer or substitute with water)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • red chili flake to taste
  • chili garlic sauce to taste or 1 clove crushed garlic
  • Optional extras to try.
  • sesame oil
  • curry paste
  • rice wine vinegar
  • grated ginger
  • shallots sauteed till brown in oil

directions

Combine all ingredients with a whisk in a small bowl, adding the water last. Pour into a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until sauce begins to bubble and thicken. Experiment with this sauce adding a teaspoon at a time of one the optional additions and tasting as you go. Serve hot or cold.

notes

This sauce stores well in the fridge for up to one month - bet it doesn't last that long though
