Peanut Sauce
Monday, August 01, 2022"This sauce will have your taste buds going nuts!"
*Caution* this recipe contains nuts, but if you love peanuts you'll love
this sauce. It's a lovely blend of sweet and spicy, and the roasted nuts bring a hint of smokiness to the sauce.
This recipe makes around 1 - 2 Cups of sauce and it should be stored in an
airtight jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. It pairs well with savouries
as a dip, as a wrap sauce, as salad dressing, etc. I have a few more recipes using this sauce coming soon so
stay tuned.
I also have started making more cooking videos, so if you'd like to see me

DeleteNever been a huge fan of peanut sauce, but this one sounds absolutely amazing!
ReplyDeleteI know the cheat way is to make it with peanut butter, however I found it tastes way better in my opinion made with actual peanuts. Thank you :)
