Our peanut sauce stir-fry is the mild, comforting end of the Thai menu — vegetables and your choice of protein wok-tossed and finished in a rich house peanut sauce, served with rice at our family owned Winnipeg restaurant.
Peanut sauce is one of the flavours people recognise instantly in Thai cooking. Ours is made with ground peanuts loosened with coconut milk and seasoned until it is savoury and only lightly sweet, so it coats the vegetables instead of drowning them.
Everything is cooked over high heat in the wok so the vegetables keep their colour and snap, then the sauce goes in at the end and reduces around them. It is the dish we recommend for guests who are new to Thai food, and for anyone feeding a table that does not agree on spice.
The wok has to be hot before anything goes in — that quick sear is what keeps the vegetables crisp. Sauce is added last and cooked just long enough to thicken, which keeps the peanut flavour fresh rather than pasty.
No — it is one of the mildest dishes on the menu, which is why families order it. If you want heat, ask and we will add chilli when we finish the wok.
Yes, the sauce is made from ground peanuts. If anyone at your table has a nut allergy, please tell us before ordering and we will help you choose a different dish.
You can — order it with vegetables or tofu instead of meat. Let our team know and we will confirm the options available that day.
