Low Carb Broccoli & Thai Peanut Sauce. Not really sure how to describe the flavors of this fabulous dish except to say…well…it’s fabulous. No, not some ole limpy, watery, broccoli but charred broccoli. I love charred broccoli as in Broccoli With Brown Butter Fish Sauce and probably just about any other way someone would serve it to me, and low carb broccoli & Thai peanut sauce is over the top and here is yet another Sweeter Spicier Thai Peanut Sauce.
I wouldn’t want you to think that broccoli is the only thing you can use this Thai peanut sauce on because that wouldn’t be true. It is wonderful on sautéed eggplant and as a salad dressing on boiled mung bean sprouts with other Asian vegetables. And I am sure you will come up with many other ways to use it.

- I don’t buy great big whole heads of broccoli as any grocery store selling it this way is cheating and charging you for what should be THEIR wastage-not yours.
