Kuah Kacang Satay (Peanut Dipping Sauce)

I made this Kuah kacang to go with my chicken satay and was so pleased with the result, it was so yummy that I ate the sauce with only the cucumber and onion as dinner!

Ingredients: 

250 gm/ 2 Cup of Roasted Peanut (I used it with the skin on)

100 gm Gula Melaka (Palm Sugar)

1 tbsp cooking oil

1 1/2 cup of water

4-5 tbsp of Sambal Tumis Paste 

or 

Blend together below spices to substitute sambal tumis paste:

4 Shallot
2 Cloves of garlic
6 Dried Chilli （or 1-2 tbsp of Chilli powder）
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1 tbsp oil

1. Roast the peanuts and let it cooled, grind in food processor to form coarse powder.

2. In a cooking pot, heat up 1 tbsp oil, stir in sambal tumis, cook until oil breaks at the edge.

3. Pour in 1 1/2 cup of water, bring to boil and add the crushed peanut, cook for 3-5 minutes, season with palm sugar, continue cooking for 10 minutes or so. Adjust taste with sugar and salt if needed.

Note: This sauce will thickened as it cooled, thus you want to switch off the stove at the consistency slightly thinner than you would liked.
