Categories     Sauces

Time 25m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 ounces roasted unsalted peanuts
3 -4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 ounce chopped onion
1 -2 tablespoon red curry paste or 1 -2 tablespoon massaman curry paste
1 teaspoon fish sauce
8 tablespoons coconut milk
4 -6 teaspoons lime juice (to taste)
2 -3 teaspoons palm sugar
chicken stock, to thin if necessary

Steps:

  • If you wish use peanut butter rather than fresh peanuts.
  • First grind or crush the peanuts to a fairly fine powder.
  • Then combine them with the remaining ingredients (except the lime juice), to form a smooth sauce.
  • If the sauce is too thick, you can thin it with a little chicken stock.
  • Now add the lime juice, tasting as you progress to check the balance of flavors is correct.
  • Note use red curry paste with beef or pork satay, massaman (as above) with chicken.
  • If you are doing shrimp satay then use half the quantity of massaman paste.

I love the creamy texture of this sauce. It's the perfect dipping sauce for chicken satay.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the chili peppers from this recipe. It was still delicious!

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I can't eat this sauce. But I'm sure it's delicious.

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover peanuts. I always have a few extra peanuts in my pantry, and this is a great way to use them up.

This sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try adding less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut sauce, but this one is really good. It's not too heavy or oily, and it has a nice balance of flavors.
