Peanut Satay Sauce With Roti

Our family loves dishes with peanut satay sauce. When we go to Asian restaurants we are always looking for any satay menu options. However, we find it it so ‘hit and miss’ as to what type of satay you will get. Some restaurants ramp up the spiciness at the expense of the peanut flavour. Some have a very thin satay sauce. I admit we are very ‘picky and critical’ when it comes to our satay sauces. Our preference is a satay that is lower on the spicy scale but far richer on the peanut (butter) taste scale. This satay sauce provides a light spicy tang, but a wonderful thick sauce with a strong peanut flavour. The onion and crunchy peanut butter, mixed through, adds to the rich texture of this sauce.

Ingredients:
• 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
• 1 clove Garlic, crushed
• 1 Brown Onion, diced
