Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons Chili garlic sauce
- 2 finely grated garlic
- 1 ” chunk of finely grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons palm sugar
- 2 teaspoons coconut or rice wine vinegar
- 15 ounce can full-fat coconut milk
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients except for the coconut milk to a large bowl.
- Gently whisk everything together until combined. This peanut butter will tighten up a little bit.
- Slowly add in the coconut milk a ½ cup at a time and gently whisk it in until the sauce is smooth and combined. I usually only use about ½ of the coconut fat that’s at the top of the can.
- Store covered in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make this up to 3 days ahead of time.
- How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
- Feel free to use chunky peanut butter if you want
- You can use bottled coconut milk, but for maximum fat and flavor canned is best.
