- Stir in the peanut butter, fish sauce, Aged Anchovy Salt and lime juice. Let the curry simmer for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly. Adjust seasoning with salt if necessary.
- Serve: Serve the curry hot over rice, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro, peanuts, scallions and a soft boiled egg if desired.
