Peanut dipping sauce made with simple pantry staples gets ready in just 5 minutes. This versatile 5 minute sauce can be used as dipping sauce, salad dressing and much more.
Flavour Variations

Serving suggestions
Great as a dipping sauce for vegetable sticks, spring rolls.
Use it as a dressing for salad such as my corn cucumber tomato salad. Replace lemon garlic dressing with this spicy peanut dressing.
Pour it over grilled or roasted vegetables.
Recreate Thai flavours with this spicy peanut sauce in vegetable burgers. Try either my chickpea veggie patties or sweet potato patties in the burger.
Storing Suggestions
Peanut dipping sauce stays good for up to 6 days if stored properly in a clean airtight container.
Tips
Add water or coconut milk and whisk it you feel the sauce is too thick. The amount of liquid required depends on the desired consistency of a sauce.
Use smooth peanut butter to get a creamy sauce.
Sesame oil imparts a subtle earthy flavour to the sauce. So just a teaspoon is enough to get that flavour.
Ingredients
Instructions
In a bowl, add peanut butter, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, chilli sauce, lime juice, vinegar, sesame oil, honey.
Whisk until all the ingredients are well combined.
Enjoy delicious peanut dipping sauce and store the remaining sauce in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
Salt is not required in this recipe as most of the ingredients contain salt.
Chilli sauce could be replaced with chilli flakes, hot sauce or sriracha if you have any of these on hand.
Consider adding water if you find it difficult to whisk or to get a pourable consistency.
Adjust chilli sauce to suit your taste. Skip it if you don't want to add any spicy touch to the peanut sauce.
