Authentic Thai Peanut Sauce
Authentic Thai peanut sauce so creamy and delicious you'll want to eat it with a spoon!
Servings: 1.5 cups
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk (from a can)
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce*
- 2 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp lime juice
- 1 Tbsp fish sauce
- 1 Tbsp chili paste
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, grated
- 1 tsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients together until smooth. You can do this with a whisk, or in a food processor or blender. I like to put everything into a saucepan and just warm it enough to melt the peanut butter.
- Be sure to give the sauce a taste to adjust it to your liking. There are so many flavor elements to play with to get it just the way you want it.
- The sauce can be used warm, cold, or at room temperature. Store in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. The sauce will solidify in the refrigerator, so gently warm it to bring it back to room temperature when ready to use.
