Salty-sweet peanut sauce is a tasty partner to crisp veggies. It's also a nice change from more common dairy-based dips.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-1/2 tsp grated gingerroot
- 1 can (398 ml) coconut milk
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup fancy molasses
- 1 tbsp packed brown sugar
- 2 tsp grated lime rind
- 1 tsp hot pepper sauce
- 2 tbsp minced fresh coriander
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp chopped peanuts, (optional)
Preparation
Heat oil in saucepan over medium-high heat; sauté onion until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; saut?or 1 minute.
Add coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, molasses, brown sugar, lime rind and hot pepper sauce; cook, stirring, until peanut butter is melted. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer, stirring often, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir in coriander and lime juice. (Make-ahead: Let cool to room temperature. Transfer to airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week. Reheat in microwave at medium/50%, stirring halfway through, until loose-textured, about 2 minutes.) Scrape into bowl; sprinkle with peanuts (if using).
