Peanut sauce or Satay sauce is a typical sauce made with a variety of spices and seasonings such as chili , coriander, cumin, caraway, garlic, shallot, ginger,palm sugar, lemongrass,coconut milk,tamarind juice and oil. I know alot of American love Thai's peanut sauce because it's taste tangy sweet compare with Malaysia's peanut sauce which is more spicy and powerful spices flavor.As a Malaysian ,I love Malaysia version peanut satay sauce compare with Thai's version,well maybe you can said I'm biased but I still prefer nutty and spicier peanut sauce than mild flavor sauce!.Here is my simple way of making peanut satay sauce..Hope you enjoy it!

Yesterday I was in Queens shopping..I notice all the Asian supermarket have lots of Malaysia or SEA grocery in stock,maybe they just received a new shipment..if you shop in Asian market in Queens like Elmhurst or Flushing or Manhattan you can find plenty tamarind powder at their asian stock shelf..In fact I just bought another 2 packet..if you get Knorr brand it's about $0.99 apacket,if you get thai's brand it's just $0.69 a apacket..If you have any problem finding it,email me..
