Homemade Thai Chili Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Keeping the seeds makes for a hotter end product, removing less so. Keep in mind it will be hotter the first day and dissipates over time. Resist the urge to taste and redip your spoon. Enzymes in saliva breaks down starches and will eventually make it watery -- that is in my humble opinion.
• In a food processor blend together the garlic, red peppers, sugar, water, vinegar and salt into a puree; transfer to a sauce pan.
• Bring mixture to a boil and simmer until the mixture begins to thicken and garlic and peppers bits slightly soften, about 3 minutes.
• Combine cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Whisk into the sugar/pepper mixture. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Cool completely before storing in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Whisk tomato sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, chili powder, allspice, garlic powder, and onion powder together in a bowl.

Steps:

• Pour water and vinegar into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in sugar, ginger, garlic, chile pepper, and ketchup; simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in cornstarch. Remove saucepan from stove to cool. Then transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until needed.

Steps:

• In a pot over medium-high heat mix the 1/4 cup water, rice vinegar and sugar; when mixture starts to boil, add the garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Bring the boil down to a simmer and let it simmer for another couple of minutes (this will make sure all the flavors get infused).
• Add the Sriracha and ginger if using.
• In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and tablespoon of water until the cornstarch is dissolved.
• Bring the sauce to a low boil again and add the salt and cornstarch/water mixture.
• The sauce will begin to thicken up immediately. Cook, while stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches desired thickness, about 3-5 minutes.
• Let the sauce cool and then use as a dipping sauce or store in refrigerator till ready to use. **Storing does cause it to loss heat so recommend eating the same day if you like the heat**.

Steps:

• Place pork in a 6-qt. electric pressure cooker. Top with mushrooms, onion and red pepper. Whisk together hoisin sauce, chili sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger and rice vinegar; pour over vegetables. Lock lid; close pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 20 minutes. Allow pressure to release naturally., Remove pork; shred with 2 forks. Return pork to pressure cooker; heat through. Sprinkle with cilantro and green onions; serve with rice, lime wedges, and Sriracha.
