Sweet and a little spicy. Our basic condiment in the house. Very quick and simple to make. Based on the Lemon Grass Restaurant's cookbook "The Best of Vietnamese & Thai Cooking". We always have a jar on hand in the frig. Many different ground chili paste nomenclatures. If unsure, read the ingredients: red chili peppers, salt, vinegar, and sesame oil are basic to all of them. Usually in a clear plastic jar with a green or red plastic lid.

2 cups (change servings and units)

I LOVE this stuff and I pair it with Coconut Shrimp. Yummy! Can't get enough, so I will take the advice of the auther and make extra to keep in fridge. Thanks for the recipe.

    Close to, and just as good as, the bottled version. I used a slighly different method: first making a simple syrup and then adding the thickener. It is easy to change the amount of chili to suit your taste without needing to adjust anything else. Nice translucent red orange color.

    Spot on. Next time I make this I'll probably puree the pre-boil mix to get the garlic minced better.

    Yummy! This was super simple to make, used ingredients that I already had on hand, and tasted delicious. Not too hot, but still with quite a kick. I’ll be making this one a lot!
