How to Make Thai Style Peanut Dipping Sauce
- Heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add 2 tablespoons of red curry paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Pour in 1 (13.5 ounce) can of full-fat coconut milk and stir well to dissolve the curry paste.
- Add 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter, 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. If the sauce is too thick, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
- Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup chopped salted peanuts and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Garnish with extra chopped peanuts and cilantro if desired.
