Satay Sauce

A great sauce for chicken, pork and beef satay.

Ingredients:

1 cup roasted peanuts or cashew nuts (if salted, cut down on salt)

1/2 finely chopped onion

1 large clove finely chopped garlic

1 tsp Sambal Oelek (or 1/2 finely chopped fresh red chili)

1 can of coconut milk

1 tsp curry

1 cm finely chopped ginger

1 tsp brown sugar

1/2 to 1 tsp. fish sauce

1 tbsp olive oil

Method:

Dry roast the nuts in a pot. Roasting them bring out the taste!! Grind them in a grinder and set aside.

Fry the onion, garlic and curry in 1 tbsp of olive oil until soft. Add ginger, brown sugar, fish sauce, coconut milk and let i simmer for 10 minutes or until the mix thickens a bit.

Grind the mix adding the nuts in a food processor or just use a hand blender. I do tend to use this as it easier to clean – just remember to turn it off with taking it out of the pot.

This is so super easy and is great to accompany satays not least!
