Special Satay sauce or peanut sauce is a must to be served with Chicken Satay.The main ingredient of this sauce is peanut.I used readymade peanut butter in the recipe which gives an extra punch.I adapted this recipe from my sister Shanta Nayak which she experimented few months back.I do not know whether this is a traditional recipe,but this tastes excellent with a sweet and spicy punch and very easy to prepare.This sauce may be enjoyed with the veggie delights too.
