Satay Sauce

Satay sauce

Satay sauce goes great with many dishes, both chicken and shrimp. Here’s a classic peanut sauce with good flavors. You can make it thicker if you want to brush it on as a marinade, or thinner to drizzle it over food like a sauce. This recipe is heavily inspired by Boltis who gave me the foundation.
