Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
1/2 Onion
1 Garlic clove
1 Peanut butter
1/2 Brown sugar
1/2 Salt
1 Soy sauce
1 Vinegar
To taste Water

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather 1/2 onion, 1 garlic clove, 1 cup of peanut butter, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of vinegar, and water to taste.

  2. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the onion (finely chopped), minced garlic, peanut butter, brown sugar, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  3. Adjust Consistency: Gradually add water to the mixture, stirring continuously, until you reach your desired consistency. If you prefer a thicker sauce, use less water; for a thinner consistency, add more water.

  4. Cook Sauce: Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and cook over medium heat. Allow the sauce to simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until it becomes bubbly and slightly thickened. This typically takes about 10 minutes.

  5. Serve: Once the sauce has reached the desired consistency, remove it from heat. Serve the Indonesian Peanut Sauce hot over rice and/or vegetables for a delicious and flavorful meal.

Chef’s Tips:

  • Customize: Adjust the sweetness and saltiness according to your taste preferences. You can also add chili sauce or chili flakes for a spicy kick.

  • Storage: Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat before serving.

  • Versatile: This peanut sauce pairs well with grilled meats, tofu, or even as a dip for spring rolls or satay skewers.

  • Authentic Flavor: For a truly authentic Indonesian taste, consider using Indonesian sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) instead of regular soy sauce.

  • Texture: If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can blend the ingredients in a food processor or blender before cooking.
