Thai Peanut Butter Dipping Sauce

Small amount of cooking oil
Squeezed garlic cloves
Peanut butter (prefer natural stuff, for that ground peanut effect)
Coconut milk
Ground ginger
Soy sauce
Sriracha hot chili sauce (red rooster yo!)
Honey
Molasses
Tamarind goo
Sesame seed oil
Fish sauce (optional)

Heat small amount of oil in small sauce pan. Saute the squeezed (indeed, extruded) garlic. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT BROWN THE GARLIC. Just saute. Just gently, sweetly saute.

Keeping the pan on very low heat, add the peanut butter and coconut milk. Use one of these http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50082654 to stir. Add all the other ingredients to taste. If oil starts to separate, take the pan off the heat and use the thickening/sauce whisk to incorporate it back in.

This stuff is delicious for satay or on noodles.
