Peanut Sauce!

I get a little excited about Peanut Sauce. Like the kind you eat on a crunchy green salad. I love it sooo much and usually buy it from our favorite Thai restuaraunt, but now I don't have to and I'm so excited!! I've tried a few different recipes and never could find something good until now. This is perfect!!!

Recipe adapted from shesimmers.com
*recipe makes 3.5 cups. Can be halved.

Ingredients:
1 13.5 oz can coconut milk
1/8-1/4 cup Thai red or Massaman curry paste
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 t, (or less, to taste) salt
1/2 cup sugar
2 T. white or apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup water

Directions:
Combine in heavy bottom pot and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Simmer 3-5 minutes stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
Store in fridge for up to a few weeks or so or freeze.  If you need to thin it out, add a little water and reheat in microwave or on stove.
