Recipe: Curried Peanut Dip

From Bon Appétit's September 2019 issue, a treat from Molly Baz, featured in the magazine's "Guide to Actually Enjoying Your Lunch at Work."

"This creamy, spicy-sweet dip will be loose and pourable when warm, but it will thicken once fully chilled. We love to pair it with leftover roast or rotisserie chicken, jammy eggs, cucumber spears, and roasted sweet potatoes for the perfect (desk-friendly) lunch."
