Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter (creamy or natural)
- 0.25 cup Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons Sriracha or chili garlic sauce
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 tablespoon Fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)

Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, coconut milk, soy sauce, lime juice, honey (or maple syrup), Sriracha, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
Step 2
Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and fully combined. If the mixture is too thick, gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve your desired consistency.
Step 3
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if needed. Add more lime juice for tartness, honey for sweetness, or Sriracha for extra heat.
Step 4
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts, if desired.
Step 5
Serve immediately with fresh vegetables, crackers, or as a dipping sauce for grilled meats. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
