Method
-
step 1
Heat the oil in a small pan and fry the shallots until soft. Add the chilli flakes and fry for another minute over a very low heat. Add the sugar and soy sauce, and stir until the sugar dissolves.
-
step 2
Gradually stir in the peanut butter, followed by the coconut milk, until everything is incorporated. Heat gently to a simmer, then stir in the lime juice.
-
step 3
Spoon the sauce into jars while it is still hot – it will solidify slightly as it cools (how much depends on the type of peanut butter used). Store in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer for three months. Warm the sauce through to use in a stir-fry, as a dip or as a dressing for steamed vegetables.
