Ingredients
- vegetable oil 1 tbsp
- shallots 2 long, finely chopped

- soft light brown sugar 2 tsp
- soy sauce 2 tbsp
- crunchy peanut butter 6 tbsp
- coconut milk 250ml
- lime 1, juiced
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.
