Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. | Begin by roasting the peanuts until they are golden brown and aromatic. Once roasted, allow them to cool slightly before shelling and removing the skins. Coarsely mash the peanuts using a mortar and pestle or a food processor. |
| 2. | Alternatively, if you’re short on time, you can use pre-roasted and salted peanuts. If opting for this method, omit adding extra salt later in the recipe. |
| 3. | In a bowl, make a thick paste by gradually adding water to the mashed peanuts. The consistency should be smooth and creamy, ensuring a luscious texture for your sauce. |
| 4. | Season the peanut paste with salt according to your taste preferences. Remember, if you used pre-salted peanuts, adjust the salt accordingly. Mix well to incorporate the salt evenly throughout the sauce. |
| 5. | Once all the ingredients are combined, give the sauce a final stir to ensure everything is well integrated. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. |
| 6. | Your Plain Jane Peanut Sauce is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve it alongside your favorite meats, sausages, or chicken dishes. Alternatively, use it as a delectable dip for vegetables or crackers. |
| 7. | Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Before using, give the sauce a quick stir to recombine any separated ingredients. |
