Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
Report
This dipping sauce is wonderful on so many levels. The recipe as written has a low to medium level of spice/heat. To reduce the spice level to very low, reduce the amount of garlic chili sauce, and chili powder, and don't use cayenne. Perfect for appetizers such as fried shrimp, dumplings, breadsticks, crackers, and cut veggies.

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- ½ cup chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- ¼ cup garlic chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice from 1 lime
- 2 tablespoon scallions chopped, divided
- ½ cup dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until fully combined. Set aside.
- In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat, add the soy sauce, broth, fish sauce, garlic chili sauce, lime juice, 1 tablespoon scallions, brown sugar, chili powder, and cayenne (if using). Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon often.
- Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Garnish with chopped scallions. If the sauce becomes too thick, thin it with a little more broth.

- The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. Store in a jar (or container) with a lid in the fridge. Let come to room temperature (or warm on the stove) before serving.
- The sauce can be frozen for up to several months. Thaw completely and re-warm before serving.
- If the sauce has become too thick, warm it on the stove and add in small amounts of broth (1 tablespoon at a time) until you've reached the desired consistency.
