Ingredients

  • 200 ml coconut milk (Ayam brand recommended)

  • 2 tbsp crunchy peanut butter

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce (salt-reduced)

  • 1 tbsp brown sugar

  • 1 tsp curry powder

  • 1 tsp sweet chilli sauce (or to taste)

  • 1 garlic clove, crushed

  • Optional: ½ tsp lime juice or vinegar (for extra tang)

Directions

  • Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan.
  • Cook over low heat, stirring constantly.
  • Simmer gently for 3–5 minutes until thickened.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste—add extra chilli for heat or sugar for sweetness.
  • Serve warm as a dip or sauce over meats and rice.

Notes

  • Use smooth peanut butter if you prefer a silky texture.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently.
  • Makes a great marinade base for chicken or tofu.
  • Add a splash of water if it thickens too much on standing.
  • Can be frozen in small portions for future use.
