Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Red chili peppers (fresh, finely chopped)
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
- 200 grams White sugar
- 120 ml White vinegar
- 120 ml Water
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water (for cornstarch slurry)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the chopped red chili peppers, minced garlic, white sugar, white vinegar, water, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar completely dissolves.
Allow the mixture to come to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry.
Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce to thicken it. Keep whisking to avoid lumps.
Continue to cook the sauce for another 1-2 minutes until it reaches your desired thickness.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, transfer the sauce to a clean jar or bottle and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
