Recipe: Satay Sauce

Ingredients:

• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 small red onion
• 1 small red chilli, deseeded
• 2 tbsp coconut oil
• 1 tsp cumin
• 3 tbsp almond butter
• Juice of one lime
• 2 tbsp sugar (coconut or rapadura)
• 3 tbsp shredded coconut
• 1 tsp Tamari
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 tbsp fresh coriander

Method:

• Finely chop garlic, onion, chilli and add to small saucepan.
• Add cumin and coconut oil and saute for 2-3 mins.
• Remove from heat and add remaining ingredients except water and fresh coriander.  Mix vigorously to form a paste.
• Return saucepan to hotplate on medium heat.  Start to gradually add the water whilst consistently stirring.  Simmer for 3-5 mins, stirring so it doesn’t stick.  More water will give you a runner sauce.
• Stir through coriander and then pour sauce over steamed chicken thighs and vegies for a quick satay chicken.
