Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 100 gr red chilies (you can use any varieties. See notes 1)
  • 4 Thai chilies (optional, if you want extra spicy)
  • 100 gr shallots (or purple onion (see notes 2 if using purple onion))
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 large tomato (seeded)
  • 1 Tbsp cooking oil
  • 3 kaffir lime leaves (tear the edges to release flavor)
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • Juice of 1 lime

Instruction

  • Place shallots, chili (if using fresh/dried chilies), garlic, and tomato in a food processor and you can either blend them until fine or roughly chop for a more rustic look
  • Preheat a skillet with cooking oil. Add the ingredients you chopped above (if using premade garlic sambal chili, don't add just yet) and kaffir lime leaves and stir fry until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the premade garlic sambal chili (if not using fresh chili) and seasoning and stir fry for another minute
  • Continue to cook until the mixture is no longer wet and dry
