Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic

2 tablespoons red curry paste

1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/2 tablespoon fish sauce

1 teaspoon sesame oil

3 (13.5 ounce) cans coconut milk

Preparation

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until the aroma of the garlic has mellowed, about 1 minute. Add the red curry paste, and stir for 1 minute more. Whisk in the peanut butter, brown sugar, chili powder, cayenne pepper, fish sauce, sesame oil, and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer, whisking occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and is smooth.
