1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1-1/2 tsp (7 mL) grated gingerroot
1 can (398 mL) coconut milk
1 cup (250 mL) natural peanut butter
1/4 cup (50 mL) soy sauce
1/4 cup (50 mL) fancy molasses
1 tbsp (15 mL) packed brown sugar
2 tsp (10 mL) grated lime rind
1 tsp (5 mL) hot pepper sauce
2 tbsp (25 mL) minced fresh coriander
1 tbsp (15 mL) lime juice
2 tbsp (25 mL) 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; sauté for 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).
