Thai Sweet Chilli Sauce image

This is similar to the orange type of sweet/hot sauce with flecks of hot pepper in it used in many Asian dishes and sometimes as a condiment or dipping sauce. Cheaper than buying retail (a major brand is Mae Ploy) and tastes just as good.

Number Of Ingredients 6

7 fresh red serrano peppers or 7 Thai chiles
4 cloves garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1 cup rice vinegar

  • Allow to cool, and store in a sealed container in the refrigerator until used.
