This sauce is something we used to make quite often, but it's been a while since we've had it. It's from Hot and Spicy and Meatless by DeWitt, Wilan and Stock. Saute 3 cloves of minced garlic and Asian chili sauce to taste in some peanut oil for a minute or so. Add 2 Tbs. tomato paste, 1/2 c. veg. broth, 1/2 tsp. agave nectar, 1 Tbs. peanut butter and 1/4 c. hoisin sauce. Whisk everything together and bring to a boil, then turn off heat and stir in 1/4 c. finely chopped peanuts and 2 tsp. chili powder. We put the sauce over some whole wheat spaghetti and topped it with steamed asparagus and a few cherry tomatoes.

This sounds incredible. I'm such a fan of peanut sauce AND hot sauces, so combining the two sounds right up my alley!
This sauce makes me think of szcheuan seasonings and on the noodles, lo-mein. Your meals have such nice color!
thanks dori...
fiber - I think you'll like this one then. It's not quite as peanut-y as some other peanut sauces we've made, but it's still really good.
