Peanut Sauce Recipe - Cooking Index
8 tablespoons | 120ml | Crunchy peanut butter |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Onion - finely chopped (medium) |
1 cup | 237ml | Thick coconut milk - (not sweetened ) |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Brown sugar - or palm sugar |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Cayenne* |
1 | Lemon grass - finely chopped | |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Fish sauce - nam pla |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Dark sweet soy sauce |
In a sauce pan combine all the sauce ingredients and bring to a simmer, stirring, until you reach the desired consistency. (5 to 10 minutes) Remove from the heat and serve in small bowls as an accompaniment.
* I use two to three teaspoons of freshly ground cayenne. This can be made by grinding crushed red or whole dried red peppers in a coffee grinder, there is a significant difference in taste and heat.
