PIRI PIRI DRESSING

My husband loves piri piri sauce. He first had it when we went to the Portuguese restaurant chain Nandos and now I have to buy a bottle of it a week. So, I figured I should find an actual recipe for it and try doing it myself. This recipe comes from British tv chef Simon Rimmer who is a chef I particularly enjoy.

PIRI PIRI SAUCE



Piri Piri Sauce image

It's hard to go a day in Mozambique without eating something that's touched with piri piri sauce (sometimes written as peri peri). The sauce, made with chiles, citrus, and oil, is Portuguese in origin, but peri is actually the Swahili word for "chile" and refers to a specific type of chile pepper that is said to have been first cultivated in Africa. While the sauce is traditionally made with piri piri chiles, all different kinds of hot peppers work well. We found that red Fresno chiles, readily available in the United States and not quite as hot as jalapeƱos, work really well. However, if you can only find jalapeƱos, just use three fresh ones in place of the red Fresno chiles. Use the sauce anywhere you would use sriracha. Try it on grilled chicken, toss it with raw cashews and then roast them for a great snack with cocktails, stir it into a seafood stew, or use it for Prego Rolls (Steak and Piri Piri Sandwiches).

Time 10m

Yield About 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 red Fresno chiles, stemmed, seeded, and coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced ginger
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon granulated sugar, plus more as needed
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed

Steps:

  • In the jar of a blender, combine the chiles, garlic, ginger, lime juice, oil, sugar, and salt and puree until smooth. Season to taste with more salt or sugar if you'd like. Transfer to a jar and store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and juicy tomatoes for a flavorful dressing. Roma tomatoes are a good choice.
  • Use fresh garlic and ginger for the best flavor. Mincing them finely will help them blend well into the dressing.
  • Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a bit of heat. If you like things spicy, you can add more to taste.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is a great choice for its rich flavor and health benefits.
  • Let the dressing marinate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Store the dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Conclusion:

Piri piri dressing is a versatile condiment that can be used as a marinade, dipping sauce, or salad dressing. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its bold and flavorful taste, piri piri dressing is sure to add a kick to your next meal.
