Ingredients

½ cup natural unsweetened peanut butter
2 tablespoons soy sauce dark or light
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons red chili paste
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2-4 tablespoons warm water

Instructions

Whisk together peanut butter, dark soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, red chili paste, lime juice, garlic, and ginger in a mixing bowl using a wire whisk.
Add warm water and whisk until the sauce is creamy. Add some more water if you want a thinner sauce.
Refrigerate it for up 10 days in a clean and dry glass container.

Notes

Reduce the amount of soy sauce for a milder sauce.

Adding a teaspoon of red curry paste or massaman paste also adds to the flavor of this sauce.

Adjust the ingredients of the sauce to make it sweeter, saltier, or spicier.

Replace soy sauce with tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten-free version.
