I looked at a few recipes online for a basic idea of the ingredients and made up my own.
I used
Approx. 1/2 cup peanut butter
Handful of peanuts
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup honey
1/4 tsp. Pampered Chef Indian Mild Curry Rub*
1/4 tsp. Pampered Chef Thai Red Curry Rub*
1/4 tsp. dried cilantro
1/4-1/2 tsp. red pepper
3 tsp. sesame seeds
3 tsp. sesame seeds
*Substitute pinches of whatever you have of sugar, salt, garlic, coriander, cumin, cinnamon, black pepper, ginger, turmeric, cardamom, brown mustard seed, clove, curry powder, paprika, onion powder, lemongrass powder, and a bit of lime juice. Simplified, use garlic, cinnamon, ginger, and curry powder.
Combine the ingredients in a pot and heat on the stove, medium temperature, until hot, stirring constantly. Serve on chicken and rice or whatever.
Nom nom...I bet that peanut sauce came out with a very Indian flair. My Thai peanut sauce recipe goes like this:
ReplyDelete1/4 C. chunky peanut butter
1-2 Tbsp. coconut milk (warmed up)
Dash curry powder to taste
Sometimes I add a little soy sauce as well, but the sesame seeds, honey, and red pepper additions sound lovely!
