This is how you make it

1
Cut the Aji Amarillo chillies in half and remove the seeds. Finely chop the ginger.

3
Puree the chillies and ginger with a few tablespoons of oil to a smooth but firm sauce. Add a little pepper and salt to taste. Put the sauce in a clean glass (sauce) bottle, twist the lid on.
