Servings: Makes about 1 1/2 cups
Ingredients
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 large shallot, finely chopped
2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon Asian chili-garlic sauce or Tabasco sauce
1/2 teaspoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 cup water
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons unsalted dry-roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
Salt
Directions
1. In a medium saucepan, heat the peanut oil until shimmering. Add the shallot and garlic and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the coconut milk, peanut butter, brown sugar, chili-garlic sauce and ginger. Gradually whisk in the water. Simmer the sauce over moderately low heat until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly, then whisk in the lime juice and peanuts. Season with salt. Transfer the sauce to a bowl or a glass jar and serve warm, at room temperature or chilled.
2. Make Ahead: The peanut sauce can be refrigerated for up to 5 days
We like to use this sauce when we make Thai Chicken Pizzas or it goes well with chicken, rice, and veggies as a "rama" sauce.
