THAI PEANUT SAUCE:
INGREDIENTS
- ¾ cup natural style peanut butter
- ¼ cup coconut milk (optional)
- juice from ½ a lime
- 1 inch fresh ginger, peeled, grated (optional)
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp sriracha sauce (rooster hot sauce) $
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- ½ tsp sesame oil (optional)
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- ¼ bunch cilantro
- ¼ – ½ cup water
- INSTRUCTIONS
- Make sure your natural style peanut butter is thoroughly mixed before measuring (you don’t want to get all oil or all solids). In a blender or food processor combine all of the ingredients except the sriracha sauce. Begin with only ¼ cup of water and add more until you get the consistency you want (I used ½ cup total). Add the sriracha sauce a little at a time (blending between) until it is to your desired heat (I used about ½ tsp).
