Ingredients

Directions

  1. Add peanut butter to a small bowl and add 50ml water. Allow the peanut butter to soak for a moment and mix into a smooth paste.
  2. Add lime juice, red chilli powder and season with salt. Mix well into a smooth paste.
  3. Taste and balance accordingly then serve. Water can be added to help the consistency and balance the flavours.

Optional

  • 1 teaspoon vinegar added to dip
  • Cooking peanut paste can be used instead of peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh red chilli or chilli flakes can be added to dip

Hint

  • We prefer to use crunch peanut butter over smooth but like most things in this book, is a matter of personal preference.
