Easy Peanut Sauce

Blend shallots, garlic, ginger and Sriracha sauce or chili paste into a coarse paste and put it into a small saucepan. Over medium high heat, saute the spice paste until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add sugar, lime juice and soy sauce and stir to mix. Pour in coconut milk and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continuously. Add in ground peanuts and peanut butter, seasoning with salt and stirring to combine. Simmer until the sauce thickens a little. Remove from heat and allow to cool. The sauce will thicken upon standing.
