Crazy Cooking Sunday - Part 2: Chilli sauce

6 months ago

Crazy Cooking Sunday didn't happen intentionally. We needed to make and use up a number of things we had bought or grown, and it just happened that we ended up with a ridiculous day of cooking (and filming).

- Breakfast: Pancakes with sliced banana, scoop of vanilla ice-cream and maple syrup (didn't do a video for this one - next time maybe)
- Lunch: Teriyaki salmon poke bowl (video link below)
- Dinner: Carne Asada Fajitas (video link below)

We also:
- Made a home-made chilli sauce (this video!)
- Picked our very first pineapple to have with the fajitas (video link below)

This was indeed an epic day and I'm glad it happened.

Recipe:
Some chillies - weight? amount? similar to what I had in the video, sorry, didn't weigh it
1 1/2 cups white vinegar, or feel free to mix other type of vinegar, i.e. apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup of water
1 teaspoon paprika or smoked paprika (I didn't have any smoked or would have used that)
1/4 teaspoon of xanthan gum (I used 1/2 teaspoon, which was just too much)

Remove seeds and stalks of chillies. Place everything into a saucepan, and cook on high heat for 5-10 mins, or until the chillies have softened and changed colour.
Use a stick blender to blend everything well.
Sterilize your bottles or jars with boiling water.
(Not shown in video) Strain sauce through a sieve to remove any skins or seeds that didn't get blended. Strain into another saucepan to keep the sauce hot while you strain the sauce.
Remove from heat.
Whisk through the xanthan gum, then transfer to your sterilised bottles or jars.
