Ingredients

4 servings

  • 4 tbsp peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
  • 100 ml coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp vegan red curry paste (or Sambal Oelek)
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or brown sugar

Method

  1. Combine the peanut butter and coconut milk in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Stir continuously as the pan heats up until the peanut butter melts completely and blends into the coconut milk.
  3. Whisk in the soy sauce, vegan red curry paste, and maple syrup until integrated.
  4. Allow the sauce to simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until it thickens into a glossy, velvety consistency.
  5. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the fresh lime juice to brighten up the heavy flavors.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature as a dip for satay skewers, crispy tofu, or fresh spring rolls. Makes about 4 servings.
