Savory Sweet Life
Peanut Coconut Sauce
Some people love ketchup; others, barbecue sauce. In our home, this peanut coconut
sauce is king. My daughter Abigail loves it so much that I often jokingly offer
her some chicken with her sauce! She usually responds with a snarky grin, “More
sauce, please.”
Makes almost
2 cups
One 13.5-ounce can coconut milk
¼ cup creamy peanut butter
¼ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 ½ teaspoons red curry paste
Combine the coconut milk, peanut butter, brown sugar, soy
sauce, and red curry paste in a saucepan and cook over medium
heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook’s note: Use this sauce over grilled meat, vegetables,
steamed rice, or your favorite pasta dish. It will keep for up
to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
Note: Chaokoh brand coconut milk works the best with
this recipe because of its higher fat content, making for a
thick and creamy sauce.
