I created this recipe as an answer to the high fat peanut sauces in restaurants and in most recipes. It is a touch sweeter than most, but I find the soy sauce and the cayenne dampens the sweetness considerably.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup better n' peanut butter low-fat peanut butter
1/2 cup hot water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon pureed ginger
1 tablespoon crushed garlic
5 scallions, sliced
5 sprigs fresh basil, chopped
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Directions:
1. Mix peanut butter with hot water in a small bowl until smooth.
2. Add spices, soy sauce and cornstarch and whisk to remove any lumps.
3. Steam-fry veggies of choice, and add the peanut sauce when stirfry is half done.
4. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer until veggies are done and the sauce thickens.
5. Serve!
