Thai Sweet Chili Sauce Homemade Recipes

CHEF JOHN'S THAI-STYLE SWEET CHILI SAUCE

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.

THAI SWEET CHILI SAUCE

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 CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients for the Batter until well combine. Add the chicken into the batter.
• Heat up a wok/skillet with about two inches of oil. As soon as the oil is fully heated, deep-fry the chicken until golden brown. Transfer the chicken out to a dish lined with paper towels to sock up the excess oil.
• Clean the wok/skillet and heat it up on medium heat. Add the oil and stir-fry the garlic until aromatic. Transfer the fried chicken into the wok, follow by the sweet chili sauce, lime juice and salt. Stir to coat the chicken well with the sweet chili sauce.
• Dish out, garnish with the white sesame and cilantro leave. Serve immediately.

SPICY SWEET CHILLI SAUCE

Steps:

• Add the vinegar, water, sugar, garlic cloves, soy sauce, and cayenne pepper (if using) in to a non-stick pan. If you're using dried chili instead of sambal oelek, add it to the pan at the same time.
• Heat over medium heat while stirring, to dissolve the sugar. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring it to a boil. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes.
• Add the sambal oelek and mix through. Let it cook for a few minutes until it's slightly thickened (2- 5 minutes)
• Mix the cornstarch and water into a smooth slurry and add this to the sauce as well.
• While stirring frequently (to prevent the sauce from burning at the bottom), simmer the sauce for a further 2 - 5 minutes or until it reaches a desired thickness. Remember, the sauce thickens as it cools as well. If it thickens too much, add a little extra water to thin it out. If you're using Clear Jel, the sauce will thicken mostly only as it cools down.
• Pour into glass jars with air-tight lids (OR heated and sterilized jars to store for longer).
• Cool to room temperature and store in the fridge.

Steps:

• Mix together cornflour and water in a bowl till no lumps exist and stir in this cornflour slurry into the sauce. Mix continuously till the sauce comes to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer till for 3-4 minutes till the sauce is thick, translucent and shiny. Turn off the flame.
• Serve immediately or cool completely and then transfer to a clean jar. Refrigerate for up to 4 weeks.

2BLEU'S SWEET THAI CHILI SAUCE (SUPER EASY)

Steps:

• To a small saucepan, add all ingredients and stir to combine. Heat and gently simmer over med-low heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half or when it is the consistency of a thick maple syrup, about 15-20 minutes. Be sure to keep an eye on it so it does not overcook or burn.
• Remove from heat, let cool slightly, then use an immulsion blender or a mini food processor to chop everything up 'fine'. (you can also do this halfway thru the cooking process, then again at the end of cooking). If using, add food coloring to show level of heat (dark red being very hot).
• Serve warm over fish, pork, chicken, vegetables, etc. Cover and refrigerate any extra. It will last 6 months or more in the fridge. This will get hotter the longer it is stored!
• CANNING: PLEASE follow your canning booklet for sterilization instructions. Using 4 oz jars (a little sauce goes a long way), hot pack in boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Stored, it should last up to 2 years.
