How to make peanut sauce:

All the ingredients, with the exception of the hot water, are put in a blender and mixed up together. While the sauce is still drizzling, the hot water can be poured in it – the hot water’s role is to make it thinner and so, it is up to each individual how much water is added. However, it is told that to obtain the best peanut sauce, it has to be “not too watery and not too thick”.
