1 can low salt/low fat chicken broth
1 cup peanut butter (you can use chunky or creamy)

In a heavy bottom pan add olive oil - saute onions and garlic until tender.  tumeric, cayenne pepper, curry powder, ginger and sambal and stirr for about 1 minute-add soy sauce and brown sugar and bring to a boil.  Add coconut milk (NOT CREAM) and chicken broth and bring to a boil-add peanut butter and stir until smooth - if sauce is too thin (it should stick to the back of a spoon) add a little more peanut butter (about a large spoonful at a time) if it is too thick you can add a little more broth, or milk, or water.  Continue cooking on  low for about 1/2 hour -

This sauce goes will with chicken or port satays, Gado Gado salad.  I will post these recipes soon
