Clubfoodys Sweet Chili Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Tip all the ingredients except the sugar into a mini chopper or blender and blend to a chunky sauce. Scrape the contents into a shallow saucepan with the sugar and 100ml water and bring to a simmer.
• Simmer for 15 mins, stirring occasionally until it becomes syrupy. Keeping a close eye on it, continue to simmer and stir for 5 mins more until it easily coats the back of the spoon and you see the bottom of the pan when you stir. Leave to cool and infuse for 1-2 hours. Will keep in a small sterilised jar for up to a month.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, add flour, cornstarch, baking powder, garlic powder, sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk until the ingredients are well blended before transferring the flour mixture to a shallow container. In another shallow container, beat eggs and milk together.
• Working in batches, dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture until well coating. Shake off any excess flour and dip them in the egg mixture; toss to coat. Return the chicken pieces back to the flour to dredge them a second time - this will make them crispier.
• In a skillet over medium high heat, add oil and bring the temperature to 375ºF/190ºC. Working in batches, carefully add the coated chicken pieces and fry them until nicely brown, about 3 to 4 minutes, flipping them a couple times.
• Transfer them to a plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil; set aside while frying the others.
• Transfer them to a large bowl and pour sweet chili sauce over; stir until well coated. Sprinkle on the sesame seeds and stir once again until evenly distributed. Before serving, sprinkle on some sliced green onions.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add water, rice vinegar, granulated sugar, ketchup, minced ginger, pressed garlic, and sambal oelek. Stir until everything is well combined and bring the mixture to a simmer.
• While it's warming up, add a couple drops of food coloring. When it starts simmering, cook for 5 minutes.
• When time is up, add the cornstarch mixture and stir very well until the sauce thickens, about 45 seconds. Remove from the heat and let the sauce cool off before proceeding with your recipe.
