INSTRUCTIONS
Everyone I have made this for LOVES this recipe for an Indonesian-style
chile-peanut sauce. It's from "The Whole Chile Pepper Book" by Dave DeWitt
and Nancy Gerlach, page 286.
It is used as a satay sauce over thinly sliced meats that are grilled on
skewers. I simply use it as a dip for raw veggies. It's also good added to
a stir fry.
I always double the recipe. If I'm making it for non-CH's, I use MUCH LESS
chiles :-)
Saute scallions, garlic, and ginger in the oil for 3 - 4 minutes until soft
and transparent, but not browned. Add stock and bring to a boil. Reduce
heat and stir in remaining ingredients. Simmer the sauce, uncovered, for 10
~ 15 minutes until thickened.
Makes 1 - 1 1/2 cups. Heat scale 8.
