Notes
- Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
- Chilies: If you have a high spice-level, use Jinda chili peppers. You can also use bird's eye chilies, which are even spicier. For a mild sauce, go for milder chilies like Spanish chilies or jalapeños. Removing the seeds can also tone down the heat.
