Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha or chili paste (optional for heat)
- 4 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, and honey (or maple syrup). Stir well until the mixture is smooth.
Step 2
Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sriracha (if using). Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are evenly incorporated.
Step 3
Gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, while whisking or stirring the sauce to your desired consistency. For a thicker sauce, use less water; for a thinner sauce, add more water.
Step 4
Stir in the sesame oil as the final touch to add a nutty aroma and flavor.
Step 5
Taste the sauce and adjust to your preference. Add more soy sauce for saltiness, lime juice for tanginess, or honey/maple syrup for sweetness.
Step 6
Use the sauce immediately by adding it to your stir-fried vegetables, tofu, chicken, or noodles. Alternatively, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
