Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce

By lynnieb93

This all-purpose condiment is a great way to add a splash of Thai flavour to a salad or vegetable dish. The secret to its exotic flavour is its perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty and spicy.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
• 4 limes, zest and juice
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 teaspoon chili flakes or hot sauce
• a large bunch mint
• a handful or two peanuts

Preparation

Step 1

Toss everything into your food processor or blender, then purée until almost smooth, leaving the peanuts a touch chunky. Some blenders are stronger than others; if yours needs a little help, add a splash of water to help it purée to a thick peanut butter consistency.
