Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Natural peanut butter (unsweetened)
• 0.75 cup Coconut milk (full-fat, unsweetened)
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Swerve sweetener or erythritol
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon Red curry paste
• 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.25 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Chopped unsalted peanuts (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the peanut butter and coconut milk over low heat. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.

Step 2

Add the soy sauce, lime juice, and sweetener to the saucepan. Continue to stir the mixture gently.

Step 3

Incorporate the minced garlic, grated ginger, red curry paste, and crushed red pepper flakes into the saucepan. Stir to combine and allow the flavors to meld.

Step 4

Add the sesame oil and water to the saucepan, stirring well until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. If it is too thick, add more water, a tablespoon at a time.

Step 5

Allow the sauce to simmer gently for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the sauce is slightly thickened and the flavors are fully developed.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning to preference with more lime juice or soy sauce if desired.

Step 7

Serve warm as a dipping sauce or drizzle over your favorite grilled meats. Garnish with chopped unsalted peanuts if desired.
