This is a recipe that I use quite often. It's a great alternative to make from the coconut milk based sauce and it's much easier. I find the sauce has a nicer consistency if you heat it up and bring to a simmer; it comes out a lot smoother.

Pretty good for when you are in a hurry, but it needs a little something to make the flavor more complex.

I'm sorry, but as written this just tastes like watered down peanut butter. Need to up the other flavors, add garlic, ginger, and I saw curry powder suggested by others. Also, the serving size is incorrect; I made this to go over rice noodles with steamed baby broccoli florets and matchstick carrots as a side dish and there was barely enough sauce for side dish portions. Oh, and it definitely was not 'hot' as the cayenne was smothered by the peanut butter.

Loved it! I added extra cayenne pepper because we like spicier food. This was a great recipe - I used it for shrimp stir-fry, which was great, but it would've been better with chicken. Definitely a keeper!

I love this recipe for many reasons: 1. I have all the ingredients on hand, 2. It's super fast & easy to make, 3. It tastes great! I like to whip this Hot Peanut Sauce up when I am in a hurry and hungry! I usually put it on top of thin spaghetti noodles, and sometimes I will add in some cubed chicken breast. I usually double the sauce recipe, and I tend to add a little bit more cayenne because I like the spice. After I take my noodles off of the burner I put the sauce on the warm burner as a way to heat it up a little bit. For me, it also makes it easier to mix the sauce because the peanut butter melts down and it gets a little creamy. This sauce is a quick treat, that tastes great! The leftovers taste great as well!

As written, I would say 4 out of 5 stars. I added 1 tablespoon curry, 1 tablespoon chili powder, fresh garlic and salt. With those additions, 5 stars. A keeper!

I used this recipe as a dip for Thai Chicken Balls also from this site and it was so-so. I thought it was to sweet and it was missing something...I'll look for another recipe next time.

I gave this 4 stars as is, but would definitely give it 5 stars with one small change: Curry. I add between 1 and 2 tsp. curry powder and it is so good! This is one of my families favorites (and I have young kids). We all love this and don't get tired of it. I put it on Chicken and serve with rice and broccoli.
