Ingredients
- 2 ounces ghost peppers about 5-6 average sized ghost peppers
- 6 ounces carrot about 1 medium sized carrot
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon lemon extract or use the juice from 1 lemon
- salt to taste
- ½ cup water for thinning, or use more as desired
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Slice the ghost peppers in half lengthwise (be sure to wear gloves!) and place them on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
- Peel and slice the carrots in half and set them on the baking sheet.
- Slice the ends off of the garlic cloves and set them on the baking sheet. This will let them squeeze out of their skins easily.
- Bake the veggies for 20 minutes, or until the carrots have sufficiently softened.
- Remove and give the carrots and ghost peppers a rough chop. Set them into a food processor.
- Squeeze the garlic out of their skins into the food processor.
- Add the apple cider vinegar, lemon extract, salt to taste and about a quarter cup of water. Process until smooth.
- Adjust the consistency of the sauce with a bit more water to your personal preference. Enjoy!
