THAI SWEET CHILI SAUCE RECIPE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Add the vinegar, sugar, water, fish sauce, sherry, garlic, and pepper flakes to a saucepan or pot.
- Bring to a rolling boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium and let boil for 10 minutes, or until reduced by half. (Note that the vinegar will be quite pungent as it burns off; rice vinegar is less strong than regular white vinegar.)
- While the mixture is boiling, dissolve the cornstarch into the cool water in a small bowl.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the cornstarch-water mixture. Stir to incorporate and continue stirring and cooking until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Then remove from the heat and taste-test.
- Pour sauce into a small bowl or jar and serve as a condiment, dip, or marinade.

THAI SWEET CHILI SAUCE
Similiar to Mae Ploy. Additions may be added...ginger, cilantro, etc. Use for dipping chicken fingers, spring rolls, wantons, Crab Ragoon, grilled chicken, fried calamari...and the list goes on. (Note: Traditionally, Thai Sweet Chili sauce is not thickened with starch, but rather cooked into a syrupy consistancy. There's some benefit to thickening with starch and using less sugar.)

Steps:
- Keeping the seeds makes for a hotter end product, removing less so. Keep in mind it will be hotter the first day and dissipates over time. Resist the urge to taste and redip your spoon. Enzymes in saliva breaks down starches and will eventually make it watery -- that is in my humble opinion.
- In a food processor blend together the garlic, red peppers, sugar, water, vinegar and salt into a puree; transfer to a sauce pan.
- Bring mixture to a boil and simmer until the mixture begins to thicken and garlic and peppers bits slightly soften, about 3 minutes.
- Combine cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Whisk into the sugar/pepper mixture. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Cool completely before storing in refrigerator.
SWEET CHILI THAI SAUCE
A savory sauce to use as a dip with shrimp or spring rolls, in stir-fries and noodle dishes, even on whole wheat pizza crust instead of typical pizza sauce with feta, sun-dried tomatoes, chicken, and vegetables.

CHEF JOHN'S THAI-STYLE SWEET CHILI SAUCE
Here's my take on Thai-style sweet chili sauce, or Nam Jim. It's sort of a hybrid between the cooked and fresh versions. If you can't find Thai bird's eye chilies, use any other combination of fresh, preserved, and/or dried chilies. Things like jalapeno, red Fresno, or Serrano chilies work great, as does habanero. This sauce is great on grilled chicken and pork.

Steps:
- Place 1/2 cup cold fresh water and vinegar in a saucepan. Whisk in Asian fish sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, sambal chili sauce, and cornstarch. Whisk until cornstarch disappears. Place over medium-high heat and bring up to a simmer stirring occasionally. As it bubbles, it will start to thicken up. Remove pan from heat.
- Whisk garlic and chili into hot mixture. Add fresh lime juice; whisk again. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature before checking for seasonings.
- If not using immediately, transfer to a glass jar with a lid. Refrigerate.
