Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • ¼ cup peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice ~ 1 lime
  • 1 birds eye chili sliced (or 1 teaspoon chili sauce)

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat, add the garlic and saute until fragrant.
  • Add the peanut butter, hoisin sauce, water, fish sauce, lime juice and chili and simmer until it thickens a bit, about 5.

Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:

1. For a thicker dipping sauce rather than a dressing only use 1/4 cup water.
2. This sauce can come much darker depending on the ratio of peanut butter to hoisin sauce. I prefer the peanut butter to be the dominant flavour but you can experiment with the amounts to get it just the way you like it.
