Equipment

  • Blender
  • Sauce Pan

Ingredients

  • 10 no Dry Red Chillies
  • 10 cloves Garlic peeled
  • ¾ cup Water
  • ½ cup Vinegar
  • ¾ cup Sugar
  • 1 tsp Salt or to taste

For Cornstarch Slurry

  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp Cold Water

Instructions

  • Take water in a sauce pan and bring that to a boil.
  • Take dry chillies in a bowl. Cover it with boiling water and let it soak for 10 mins. Now take that in a blender along with water. Add in sugar, garlic, salt and vinegar in this. Blend it to a coarse puree. It will be watery.
  • Now pour this in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Boil this for 10 mins on a low heat so that the flavours will infuse together.
  • Now mix cornflour with water. Pour this over the sauce and mix well. It will start thickening. At one point, the sauce will start to double boil. At this point switch off the flame and let it cool completely.
  • Store this in a dry air tight glass jar in fridge. Serve this as a dipping sauce with any fried food.

Notes

    1. You can use a blender or food processor to get a smooth consistency. If you prefer a chunkier texture, pulse it instead of blending fully.
    2. Always use a dry spoon when taking the sauce out of the jar to prevent spoilage.
    3. If the sauce thickens too much after cooling, add a splash of warm water and stir before using.

    Storing & Using

    Let the sauce cool completely before transferring it to a clean, airtight jar. You can store it in the fridge, and it will stay fresh for months.
