AUTHENTIC THAI PEANUT SAUCE
This is a quick and delicious thai peanut sauce that can be used for dipping satay, fresh spring rolls, deep fried tofu, or really anything. I originally found it on the website SheSimmers.com and then adapted it to my own taste and the ingredients I had on hand. You can make it creamy or chunky depending on your preference, I like to add some chopped up peanuts to mine for that extra crunch. Either way, the flavor is perfect and to me it tastes just like the peanut sauce you would get at a thai restaurant. You could also use it on rice or noodles or as a salad dressing. Yum!

CLASSIC THAI PEANUT SAUCE
This came from my 101 Deep Fryer Recipes cookbook, as a dipping sauce for some kind of Thai meat fritter. The fritter didn't look too appetizing but this sauce is really good and quite simple to make. Yields about 1 cup of sauce. And this delightful sauce is vegan!
