Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
Servings : 4
Ingredients
- 6 red chili pepper medium, approx 4 oz.
- 1 Tbsp bottled minced garlic or 2-3 cloves fresh
- 1/2 cup rice vinegar
- 1/2 cup honey
Instructions
- Trim the ends off of the red chili peppers and cut them in half lengthwise.
- Remove the seeds from all but 1 or 2 peppers for a more mild sauce. Leave more seeds for a hotter sauce. I chose to leave ALL of the seeds in my test batch and it was pure glorious fire, but others may not agree.
- Add the chilis, the rice vinegar, and the garlic to a food processor or blender. Blend or pulse to chop up the peppers. It doesn't need to be smooth but the peppers should be in small pieces and not large chunks.
- Pour the chili mix from the blender or food processor into a small saucepan and add the honey. Bring to a low boil and cook for 20 minutes, stirring frequently. The sauce will thicken as it cooks.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool. It tastes amazing on fried rice!
