Time 35m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 -3 shallots, diced
4 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 inch piece ginger, peeled & chopped
1 pinch of smoked spanish paprika
1 teaspoon ground coriander powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin powder
1/2 red chili powder, to taste
1 pinch ground allspice
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 tablespoon brown sugar, to taste
3 -4 dried red chilies, soaked in a little hot water for 30 minutes
1/2 cup tamarind paste (or concentrate)
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons sambal oelek or 2 tablespoons chili paste, to taste
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon canola oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
water or juice

Steps:

  • In a sauce pan on medium high heat, add the oil. When hot, saute the shallots, garlic and ginger. Let cook until the shallots have become translucent and softened.
  • Add in the spices (paprika, ground coriander powder, ground cumin powder, red chili powder, ground allspice, salt & pepper). Let the spices fry for a minute or so and then start adding in the other ingredients: brown sugar, dried red chilies along with their soaking liquid, tamarind, honey, sambal oelek and soy sauce. Mix well.
  • Add about 1 cup or so of water (you could also add your favorite juice such as mango, orange or a mixed fruit juice). Bring to a gentle boil, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer; cook until thickened and reduced. Let cool slightly, adjust any seasonings and blend into a smooth thick paste.
  • Store in an airtight container or jar for up to 1 week or so in your refrigerator.
