I’ve long been searching for that special peanut sauce recipe. Most recipes call for a lot of peanut butter and many times mine ended up tasting more like a PB&J rather than a taste of Thailand. I have finally found that special recipe! It’s a slight variation on the amazing Chloe Coscarelli’s peanut noodle sauce recipe. The other part I love? It’s vegetarian and extremely east to make!
All you need is….
1 cup coconut milk
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup peanut butter (smooth)
1/4 cup maple syrup (I like to use maple flavored agave syrup to save money)
1/4 cup soy or sushi sauce (I like sushi sauce)
2 tablespoons lime juice
1-2 cloves garlic (minced)
Combine coconut milk, water, maple syrup, soy sauce, PB, and garlic in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat and whisk frequently until sauce is nice and thick. Remove from heat and add lime juice.
Pour on noodles or rice and enjoy!
