In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, combine the coconut milk and smooth peanut butter. Stir gently until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add tamari, brown sugar, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, red curry paste, fish sauce, and chili flakes to the saucepan.
Continue to stir the mixture over medium heat until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the sauce is heated through.
Gradually add water, stirring constantly, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit more water.
Once the sauce is smooth and heated through, remove it from the heat.
