Notes: Serve as a dipping sauce for beef, chicken, and shrimp satay and to spoon onto vegetables for satay. If making sauce up to 2 days ahead, cover and chill; reheat in a microwave oven or stir over low heat. If sauce has thickened or looks slightly curdled, stir in a little water. Prepared Asian-style peanut sauce is a quick alternative. Ingredients:
1/2 pound salted roasted peanuts |
3 cloves garlic, peeled |
1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thai chili or 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh serrano chilies |
2 tablespoons sliced peeled fresh galangal or fresh ginger |
1/4 cup chopped palm sugar or firmly packed brown sugar |
2 cans (14 oz. each) coconut milk |
1/4 cup sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) or 2 tablespoons each soy sauce and sugar |
about 3 tablespoons lime juice |
about 1/2 tablespoon salt |
Directions:
1. In a food processor, whirl peanuts, garlic, chili, galangal, and sugar until finely ground.
2. In a 2- to 3-quart pan over high heat, combine peanut mixture, coconut milk, and sweet soy sauce. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until sauce is slightly darker and thicker, about 15 minutes. Add lime juice and salt to taste. Serve warm or at room temperature.
3. Nutritional analysis per tablespoon.
