Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

  • 1/2 cup coconut milk

  • 3 tablespoon water

  • 3 tablespoon fresh lime juice

  • 3 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce

  • 1 tablespoon Hot sauce

  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root

  • 3 clove garlic, minced

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

  • In a bowl, mix the peanut butter, coconut milk, water, lime juice, soy sauce, fish sauce, hot sauce, ginger, and garlic.
  • Let sit for 2 hours for flavours to meld.
  • Mix in the cilantro just before serving.

Notes

  • This makes quite a bit, consider halving it.
  • * 1/8 tsp ground ginger can be used as a substitute for 1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger…but if you can get fresh, use that, it does make a difference.
  • Leftovers can be used to start a pad thai
