SPICY THAI PEANUT SAUCE

Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce image

This peanut sauce is very flavorful, with lemon, ginger, and quite a bit of heat. It's good with satays, stir-frys, rice bowls, or good as a dip. Don't be afraid to add more or less of the spices, just add to taste! Store in the fridge up to one week.

SPICY PEANUT BALLS WITH SATAY SAUCE

Spicy Peanut Balls With Satay Sauce image

Recipe adapted from a 1989 Womens Weekly - part of a fabulous finger food feast for 10. Can be made 2 days ahead and kept covered in the refrigerator. Can also be frozen for 2 months - just defrost and heat in a 200°C oven till hot. These balls have a lovely crunchy texture and remain beautiful and moist - you could almost do without the satay sauce, but why deny yourself? I also use half veal and half beef mince.
