Spicy peanut sauce

Recipe:
1 med. onion 4 cloves garlic 1tbsp olive oil
1cup hot water 1tbsp fresh ginger , grated 1cup natural peanut butter
3tbsp braggs or soy sauce dash of cayenne pepper

Saute onions & garlic in saucepan until onion is translucent. Stir in water, ginger, peant butter, braggs, and cayenne. Whisk together until smooth. Simmer for 5 min on high heat, stirring often.
Serve over noodles, stir fry or veggies


Ok, so I cheated. I used garlic powder instead of the real thing. I also added vegetarian chicken stock (from bulk barn)
So this turned out pretty well and tasted great, but I had to stir the peanut butter constantly and ended up scrubbing peanut butter off my stove top,cupboards, floor. Seriously, if i was a cartoon character, I would be Pig Pen; with nicer shoes.

  1. This is simple but sounds good and nutritious. Can it be kept in the fridge and just added to whatever? Keep on cooking and writing....

  2. Yes, it does keep in the fridge-just heat to liquify it again. I put it on veggies, but great as a pasta sauce

  3. I could see this being good with veggies....I wouldn't have thought of that.
