Thai-Style Sweet Chili Sauce
Sweet-and-spicy at it's best in this gluten-free, dairy-free condiment.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 Tablespoon garlic minced or pressed from 5-6 cloves
- 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes (or more, to taste)
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha (or more, to taste)
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 Tablespoon cold water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Combine sugar, vinegar and 1/4 cup of water in a pot and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
- Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and reduce the heat; simmer for a few minutes, allowing flavors to meld. Add the sriracha.
- In a small measuring cup, combine cornstarch and cold water and stir until fully dissolved.
- Increase heat and add cornstarch/water mixture and salt. Stir constantly until sauce reaches desired consistency (typically like a loose honey).
- Allow to cool before serving with your favorite dippers.
