👨‍🍳 Instruktioner

1
Prepare the chili base: In a food processor or blender, combine the piri piri chilies (stems removed, seeds optional for heat control), roughly chopped garlic cloves, and fresh lemon juice. Process until a coarse paste forms. Scrape down the sides as needed.
⏱️ 5 minutes
2
Infuse the oil: Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Do not let it smoke. Once shimmering, carefully add the chili-garlic paste. Stir constantly for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant and the paste darkens slightly. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
⏱️ 3 minutes
3
Add remaining ingredients: Pour in the red wine vinegar, smoked paprika, and salt. Stir well to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
⏱️ 1 minute
4
Simmer and thicken: Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer gently for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken slightly and the flavors will meld. The aroma should be pungent and spicy.
⏱️ 10 minutes
5
Cool and strain (optional): Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool completely. For a smoother sauce, you can strain it through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids. Discard the solids or reserve for other uses. For a chunkier sauce, skip straining.
⏱️ 15 minutes
6
Bottle and store: Transfer the cooled piri piri sauce to a clean, sterilized glass jar or bottle. Seal tightly. Store in the refrigerator. The sauce will keep for several months.
