Sweet Chili Sauce Recipe
Report
Every fridge should have a jar (and a spare) of this sweet/sour/spicy/umami sauce on hand at all times.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 Tbsp olek sambal (Thai chili paste)
- 1 Tbsp red chili flakes
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp fish sauce
- 3 tsp cornstarch
Instructions
- Put everything except the cornstarch into a medium saucepan and stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil and boil for about 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add 3 tablespoons of water to the cornstarch to make a slurry and stir into the sauce. Continue to boil for a few more minutes to thicken. You're looking for the sauce to lightly coat the back of a spoon. It will thicken further as it chills. Note: sweet chili sauce is not meant to be super thick. When chilled it will have body but still be 'pourable'. Think maple syrup.
- Transfer the hot liquid to a clean jar and allow to cool. Cap tightly and refrigerate to chill.
- Sweet chili sauce will keep about 2 weeks, refrigerated.
