Peanut Sauce

Courses: Starters and appetizers

Recipe Ingredients

8 tablespoons 120mlCrunchy peanut butter
1 tablespoon 15mlOnion - finely chopped (medium)
1 cup 237mlThick coconut milk - (not sweetened )
1 tablespoon 15mlBrown sugar - or palm sugar
1 teaspoon 5mlCayenne*
1   Lemon grass - finely chopped
1 tablespoon 15mlFish sauce - nam pla

Recipe Instructions

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.
