4 ounces of freshly roasted, unsalted, peanuts
3 to 4 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 ounce chopped onion
1 to 2 tablespoon red or Massaman curry paste
1 teaspoon fish sauce
8 tablespoons coconut milk
4 to 6 teaspoons lime juice, to taste
2 to 3 teaspoons brown sugar
First grind or crush the peanuts to a fairly fine powder. Then combine them with the remaining ingredients (except the lime juice), to form a smooth sauce. If the sauce is too thick, you can thin it with a little chicken stock. Now add the lime juice, tasting as you progress to check the balance of flavors is correct.
Note:
Use red curry paste with beef or pork satay, Massaman with chicken. If you are doing shrimp satay then use half the quantity of Massaman paste.
