Peanut Sauce Ingredients
- ½ cup smooth peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce or Tamari
- 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar (or honey or pure maple syrup)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (or lime juice)
- 1 clove garlic, finely minced
- ½-1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce (to taste)
- 3-6 tablespoons warm water
Instructions
- Add Ingredients to Bowl: Combine all ingredients except the warm water into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and well blended.
- Whisk in Water: Gradually add warm water, one tablespoon at a time, while whisking continuously to thin out the sauce. Continue until the sauce reaches your preferred consistency.
- Serve Peanut Sauce: The recipe yields approximately ¾ cup (12 tablespoons) of sauce. Serve this versatile peanut sauce alongside fresh spring rolls or as a dipping condiment for your favorite dishes, and enjoy its rich, balanced flavors.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of Sriracha to control the spiciness according to your taste.
- Use Tamari sauce for a gluten-free option.
- For a vegan option, substitute brown sugar with pure maple syrup or use honey for a non-vegan sweetener.
- If sauce thickens after refrigeration, whisk in a little warm water before serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
