Ingredients

1 13.5-ounce can of full-fat, unsweetened coconut milk
2 oz (¼ C) of Thai red or Massaman curry paste
¾ C unsweetened (natural) creamy peanut butter
      (Do not use regular peanut butter or anything with

1. Put everything into a medium heavy-bottomed pot and bring to a very gentle boil over medium heat, whisking constantly.
2. Let the mixture simmer for 3-5 minutes over low heat; be careful not to let the mixture scorch at the bottom of the pot.
3. Take the pot off the heat, let the sauce cool down to room temperature (or slightly warmer), and serve the sauce with satay or fried tofu.
