6 tablespoons peanut butter
1 cup water
¾ tsp palm sugar or substitute
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
lemon juice to taste
½ tsp shrimp paste
coconut milk for thinning

Put peanut butter and water in a saucepan and stir over gentle heat until mixed. Remove from heat and add all other ingredients. It will be necessary to add some coconut milk or water to make the paste a thick, pouring consistency. After doing so, check seasonings and add more salt and lemon juice if needed.
