Thai Sriracha Chilli Sauce Recipe

• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 40 mins
• Total Time: 1 hour
• Portions: Fills four 250ml bottles

You’ll need:

• Red bird’s eye chili 50g. (20 chillies)
• Big yellow chilli 200g. (15-16 chillies)
• Red spur chilli 300g. (20 chillies)
• Ripe tomatoes 5-6 large ones
• Garlic 12-15 cloves
• Yellow onion 2 large ones
• Sea salt 4-5 tsp. (adjustable)
• Brown sugar 4.5 tps.
• White wine vinegar 2 cups (white vinegar works too!)
• Olive oil 2 tsp.

• Water 1.5 cup (adjustable)

  Let’s start!

• Roughly chop all chillies and place them into food processor along with onion and garlic. Add a generous pinch of salt and blend it finely. Put it in a bowl and set aside.

• In the same food processor, roughly chop all tomatoes and again blend it finely

• Put a medium sized wok or pan on medium heat and add olive oil. Add the chilli mixture, add another pinch of salt, brown sugar and vinegar. Reduce the heat to a simmer for 10-15 mins until most of the water has evaporated.

• Add blended tomato in the chillies mixture, stir a bit and let it simmer for another 20-30 minutes.

• If the sauce starts to dry up in the first 10-15 mins, add a bit of water.

• Turn off the heat, let the sauce cool down or blend it straight away carefully, depending on your blender type.

• Strain it through a sieve, making sure you don’t leave a single delicious drop of this Sriracha chilli sauce behind, or enjoy it rustic way.

• Enjoy!

  Tips:

• If you are concerned about the amount of sodium in the sauce, you can adjust the amount according to your taste.

• Pasteurize the bottles and everything that will touch the final chilli sauce in hot water before bottling, the sauce can be kept for several months in the refrigerator.

• If you’d like to use white sugar, you might need to reduce the amount and taste as you go cause white sugar is sweeter.

• If you can take the heat, you can also add more bird’s eye chillies as you like.

• Caution, when blending hot liquids, don’t overfill your blender, please leave a small opening to allow heat to escape.
