Use a mix of common sense, suggestions below, and your own taste for quantities. Makes approximately a cup of sauce:
- ~3 garlic cloves minced very finely.
- About the same amount of finely minced ginger.
- ~1 tbsp of brown sugar.
- ~1 tbsp fish sauce.
- 1 cup of peanut butter.
- ~1 tsp sesame oil.
- juice from one lime
- A squirt of hot sauce, such as the Sichuan Chili Oil I made here.
- Water, enough to make the sauce creamy but not super thick.
Heat up all the ingredients in a saucepan and serve.
Block of Tofu with Spicy Peanut Sauce
So, I made this today and it was amazing.
Sautee a block of firm tofu on canola oil on both sides until brown. I cut it so it’s about an inch thick. Serve with the sauce and scallions on top. Ridiculous.
