Ingredients
- ⅓ cup peanut butter
- 2 tbsp brewed soy sauce
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp sriracha
- 1 inch fresh ginger (finely grated)
- 1 garlic clove (finely grated)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, maple syrup, and sriracha. Use a fine grater to finely grate the ginger and garlic on top. Whisk well until the ingredients are mixed. (It will be thick at this point.)
- Add a tablespoon of water to the bowl, and whisk again until the sauce is thinner. If you want an even thinner sauce, add another tablespoon of water, and stir again. Be careful not to add too much water at once, so the sauce won’t get too thin.
- This peanut sauce can be used right away or stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. It will thicken when chilled, so you may need to add another tablespoon of water when you get it out of the fridge later. Or let it come to room temperature to thin out again.
