Sambal Westlandpeppers

Here's how to make it

1
Order the red or yellow Sambal package with the Westlandpeppers products: 250g red or yellow chilies, 3 rawit chilies or madame jeanette chilies and 2 cloves of garlic.

2
Remove the stalks from the peppers and grind them along with the onion and garlic in a blender or with a hand blender.

3
After this, add the sugar, vinegar, soy sauce manis and lime juice and grind again.

4
Fry the sambal in a wok or skillet with a generous splash of oil. Leave on high heat for 5 minutes and keep stirring.

5
Put the sambal in a clean jar, twist the lid on. Place the jar upside down so that it vacuums and is perfectly sealed. Let the sambal cool and store in the refrigerator.

Tip

1
Want to give the sambal extra spice? Then leave the seeds in the chilies. Sambal just less hot? Then take out seeds and add a tomato.

Shelf life

Once you open the jar of sambal, it has a limited shelf life. If you always use a clean spoon you extend the shelf life. Also, you can always pour a small layer of oil on top of the sambal after you scoop out some.

Ingredients

  • 1 onion
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce manis
  • juice of half a lime
  • olive oil
