Add peanut sauce to a bowl of rice or noodles for a meal.
Note:When coconut milk is not readily available, a good substitute can be prepared with coconut and cream. Simply mix 1 cup (250 mL) light cream or table cream with 2/3 cup (150 mL) unsweetened desiccated or shredded coconut and bring to a boil on the stovetop or in the microwave. Let mixture stand for 5 minutes, then pour "coconut milk" through a sieve.
