Serves:

 

Instructions:

** you can also add some cumin if your taste buds are dead**
Chop chillies roughly. Combine in a pan with water vinegar ( if you prefer more tang you can substitute more vinegar less water), bring to the boil . Reduce heat to low, add salt and sweetener, cover, simmer until juices reduce.
Pour mix into a food processor blend until finely chopped or use your hand blender.
Store excess Sambal Oelek in small glass jar (with a non metallic lid, cause this stuff eats through metal LOL) in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
