Sweet chilli sauce
This sweet chilli sauce is very easy to make, mildly hot and both sweet and sour. You’ll never want the store-bought version again!
Sterilize your jars by washing them in very hot water. Leave them to dry. You can use any jars as long as they are airtight.
Deseed and finely chop the bell pepper. Remove the stalks from the chillies and cut them into slices.
Weigh the bell pepper and chillies together. The total weigh should be about 500gr.
Combine all the ingredients in a pan and bring to a boil. Let the mixture simmer while stirring occasionally. Don’t let your sauce simmer for much longer then 2 minutes. Otherwise your sauce will be more like a jam. Which is also tasty, but not what we’re aiming for.
When you’re happy with the consistency of your sauce remove the pan from the heat. Pour the sauce into your prepared jars and put on the lids. Let the jars cool a little bit before turning them upside-down. Then leave them to cool down completely.
Letting your jars cool while upside-down, should create a vacuum. If one of your jars turns out not to be completely vacuum (there always seems to be one), simply use this one up first.
