- 1 teaspoon Low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil (optional, for roasting)

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the tomatoes and red chili peppers. Peel the garlic cloves and the onion.
Place the tomatoes, chili peppers, garlic, and onion on a baking sheet. If desired, lightly drizzle with olive oil. Roast in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until they are slightly charred and softened.
Carefully remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes.
Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender or food processor. Add the white vinegar, honey, soy sauce, water, and a pinch of salt.
Blend until smooth. You can adjust the consistency by adding a little more water if needed.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding a touch more honey for sweetness or salt for balance.
Pour the chili sauce into a sterilized jar or airtight container. Let it cool completely before storing in the refrigerator.
