Ingredients
Chili Sauce Mixture
- 1 cup (250 g) water
- 1 cup (238 g) rice vinegar
- ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons tomato paste
- 1 habanero pepper, finely diced (about 2 teaspoons)
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger root, minced
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
Slurry
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add water and vinegar.
- Add sugar, tomato paste, chili (habanero) pepper, ginger, and garlic. Stirring frequently, boil for about 10 minutes, or until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- In a small dish, combine cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir together until no clumps remain.
- Pour the slurry into the saucepan and stir to combine. Continue to cook the sauce, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes. The mixture will thicken slightly and should coat the back of a spoon. (Don't worry if the mixture is still somewhat thin; it will continue to thicken as it cools.)
- Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool. If you feel like it is too thick after cooling, whisk in ½ teaspoon of water to thin it out as desired. It can also be thinned by warming the sauce slightly in the microwave at 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between.
- Store Sweet Chili Sauce in the refrigerator for up to a week. Serve warm or cold.
