Steps:
- Preheat a skillet over medium. Add oil hot (it should glisten). Add red curry paste and cook for a few minutes, until nice and aromatic. This is called "blooming" the spices in the paste and will make them more flavorful. Stir so that the paste does not stick for about 3 minutes.
- Add coconut milk and bring mixture to a simmer. Let reduce over low heat until slightly thickened, about 3 more minutes.
- Remove from heat and whisk in peanut butter, vinegar, lime juice, tamari, maple syrup, and grated ginger. Add salt to taste, 1/2 - 2 tsp. Let cool in the fridge (or freezer if you're in a rush) until mixture thickens. To serve, top with red pepper flakes and fresh basil. Plate with fresh vegetables and chips! Dip can be stored in the fridge for 4 days in a sealed container. Best served cold.

Steps:
- Pour the oil into a large wok or and set over medium heat until shimmering hot. Add the peanuts and stir and cook until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Toss them continuously so they cook evenly without burning.
- Scoop up the peanuts with a slotted spoon and transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to cool. Remove any burnt peanuts, they will taste bitter.
- When the peanuts are cool enough to handle, grind them in a small food processor or pulverize them with a mortar and pestle until they have the texture of coarse sand.
- Mix the water together with the lime leaves, tamarind, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then adjust the heat until it is bubbling gently. Simmer for about 5 minutes, breaking up the tamarind pulp.
- Remove the lime leaves and any chunks of tamarind pulp with a slotted spoon. Add the ground peanuts and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Adjust the heat and simmer gently until thick and creamy like gravy, 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often so the sauce doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the sambal oelek and Thai chilies (if using). Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed, making sure the acidity of the tamarind or lime sings through.
- Serve the peanut sauce with vegetables or as a dipping sauce for grilled kebabs.
THE BEST INDONESIAN PEANUT SAUCE
This recipe comes from the vegetarian times and is actually a vegan recipe, though I am not either of those things :-). I made this because I just LOVE peanut sauces and this is the best one I have had, not to mention how simple it was to make! I used reduced fat peanut butter and it didn't seem to affect the recipe at all. It will keep up to a week or so in the fridge and personally, I like to either toss it with noodles and chicken or serve it with chicken chunks over brown rice. I don't like things spicy and this was perfect. I also saute the chicken chunks in 1 tsp sesame oil just to enhance the flavor. It makes quite a bit of sauce, I would say it serves 6! Enjoy!
