Mchuzi Wa Karanga - Peanut sauce

Servings 4
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 garlic clove minced (because garlic makes everything better)
  • ½ tsp turmeric adds warmth, color, and the illusion that I know what I’m doing
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt because bland food is a crime
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp honey optional, but bribing with a little sweetness works wonders

Notes

Mchuzi Wa Karanga is the ultimate "kid-proof, parent-approved" sauce. It has single handedly saved dinner time in my house. If you’ve got a picky eater, try this trick and let me know how it goes!
(Or just make a batch for yourself and eat it straight from the spoon. No judgment.)
