Paleo Sweet Chilli Sauce

PALEO/GLUTEN FREE/DAIRY FREE/REFINED SUGAR FREE
10 WEEK CHALLENGE APPROVED

By now we all know how hard it can be to find condiments that aren’t full of sugar, fillers, chemicals and crap. For this exact reason, I make a lot of my own sauces. We all know that I am the condiment queen and you’re hard pressed to find me eating a meal without mayo.

I recently made a Vietnamese Chicken Salad (you guessed it – that recipe will be posted here too!) and part of the dressing was a sweet chilli sauce. I figure it’s something a lot of people love, so why not create a paleo friendly recipe for you all too!?

This sauce definitely has more of a kick to it, but I was pretty tentative to add any additional honey as then it just becomes too carb heavy.

Don’t forget to tag me in your creations – @elorahh and #theshrinkingviolet – I LOVE seeing what you create!

Instructions

1. Cut your chillis in half lengthwise and remove the seeds from 3 of the halves, leaving the fourth pepper with seeds intact.
2. Place chillis into a food processor alongside garlic, ginger and water. Pulse until the chilli is finely chopped.
3. Place mixture into a small saucepan alongside vinegar, honey and salt. Bring to the boil over a high heat.
4. Reduce the heat until your sauce is at a simmer and simmer until thickened - around 15-20 minutes. Ensure you stir throughout to stop the mixture burning to the pan.
5. Allow sauce to cool and then add to a glass jar and store in the fridge.
