Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 pieces Red chilies
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 3 small pieces Shallots
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol (granulated sugar substitute)
- 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Prepare the red chilies by removing the stems and coarsely chopping them. If you prefer less heat, remove the seeds as well.
Peel the garlic and shallots and roughly chop them.
In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped chilies, garlic, and shallots. Blend until you achieve a coarse paste.
Heat the coconut oil in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chili paste to the pan and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and slightly reduced.
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for another 2 minutes.
Add the apple cider vinegar, erythritol, water, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Lower the heat and let simmer for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly and the flavors meld together.
Remove from heat and let the sambal cool to room temperature.
Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve as a condiment with your favorite dishes.
