Recipe: Homemade Chili Sauce


I love chili and spicy food. I like to eat chili with almost everything, although I try to limit them now because I find that when I eat too much chili, acne starts to pop up. I used to buy bottled chili sauce from the supermarket but after I started reading food labels, I realize there are ingredients in bottled chili sauces like MSG, additives, and preservatives that I would rather avoid if I can. So I prefer making my own chili sauce at home. This is a simple homemade recipe with an Asian flavor and ingredients that I always have on hand.

Ingredients

Shrimp Paste
Tomatoes
Red Chilies
Coconut oil
Salt
Kaffir Lime Leaves

Directions

1. Mix tomatoes and red chilies in the blender.
2. Heat up coconut oil and add the rest of ingredients, simmer until fragrant. 

My dear friend, Ci Kiki, also makes a delicious homemade chili sauce. You'll be impressed!

Bon appétit!
