Sweet Chili Sauce

This sauce is truly amazing. I actually made a quite a few weeks ago, but now that I am a member on here, I thought I would post my apreciation for it. YUM!!!

This is a keeper!

This is my new favorite thing! I put a whole black dragon pepper in it to really crank up the heat. It's a little bit of heaven and a little bit of hell!

Yum! I just made this in a blender (not a food processor) and it's g-reat! It made enough for 2 big servings. Next time I make it I think I will make it less sweet and probably try it with the carrot/onion bread (even though I have no dehydrator I plan on trying it in my oven).

Wowee! This is so good I'm taking it to my wife at her job at 10 o'clock at night with some chips just to make her day (well, night). God bless you, brother, for providing a raw alternative to store-bought salsas!

Very, very yummy.. even with my tweaks lol. (A few slices Dried mango (no fresh on hand), yellow bell pepper (didn't have red) and stevia for most of the dates (I have to watch the sugars)) I add it to my salads and it's great with jicama or zucchini 'pasta'. Even better after 'marinating' for a day or so. Thank you!

carrie6292 - Pressed means put it through a garlic press. If you haven't got one, chop the garlic and ginger, then press it hard to sruch it up with the side of a wide bladed knife.

I just made this dish this past weekend and i'm glad that i read all of the comments before i made it. I went to the store and got the ingredients. The mango did not ripen enough by the time i needed to make this (for a friends house). It wasn't as "juicy" as the picture. Also, what do you mean when you say "pressed"? Is this supposed to be juiced and not thrown in whole? I used this as a spread for veggie wraps. It was good, but not as good as it should be (according to all of the comments). I'll try this again when i have the ripe ingrdients.

This is one of the BEST dips I've ever had! Mine didn't come out looking as appetizing as yours but it is delightful with the raw sweet corn chips I just made. Awesome recipe, I bet it would be good with pineapple in place of the mango as well.

I am in heaven! The lovely lady at the markets gave me an overripe mango. I forgot the chili, so added a good teaspoon of cayenne..... then chopped my slightly underripe mango from the fridge through with an avocado and piled it on to the plate next to a great mound of sunflower sprouts and a chopped tomato. The sauce went all over, a few pumpkin and sunflower seeds got added, and I forked the mix into huge wedges of iceberg lettuce for the juiciest sloppiest best raw "tortillas" I ever ate! Chris thank you for inventing and sharing this delicious recipe :)

I soak flax seeds in 3 time their volume of water and then blend into a thick foam cream with even more (1/2 – 1 cup) water added on top before blending. This is a base for all my bread. On it’s own, just poured out onto trays to dehydrate, it’s like prawn crackers. Careful not to spread it out much you will pop the natural bubbles. Then depending on what you add, it can become anything from pasta, tortilla, pizza crust, fried batter, even our famous Carrot Onion Bread.

Wow this looks gooooood!!! I'm SO going to make it. What crackers are in the picture? They look awesome!

Wow this looks awesome.
Is there anything I could substitute for dates? Maybe raw honey?
Thanks!

Snowfairy: Lemon Juice will do the trick I think.

After making this amazing recipe about ten times, I discovered another essential, in the form of the mango used. I have tried this recipe with 4 different varieties of mango's (I'll try and remember all of them) and so far a champagne mango is superior. Definitely select a mango that is almost too ripe, just this side of too ripe.

Hi Chris, you & Zoe are my idol's by the way:)
I love the sound of this sauce, but I can't eat vinegar - is there anything I can use instead? Lemon juice maybe, would it taste as good? Thanks xxxx

Cheri - i bet the pineapple would be a really good substitute! More hawaiian, but still really good :)

Chris, could you suggest a substitute for the mango? The only tropical fruits I like are citrus, pineapple, kiwi, bananas. Thank you.

repurpose, it's a red bell pepper, and if I were you I'd go for the deepest and dark red pepper you can find. I recently made it with a red pepper that wasn't picked at the peak or ripeness, and the sauce seriously suffered. This is officially my second favorite recipe of all time to all readers, I usually omit the ginger but I'm sure it just makes it that much better ;)

Sounds so good! What kind of "red pepper" is used though? A sweet bell pepper, a hot cayenne pepper?

Chris or Zoe, can you recommend a good chip replacement recipe? I've tried a few corn chip recipes and i hate how sweet they are... everything else i've made comes out like a cracker... Thanks!!

I am absolutely speechless. I have been unable to eat sweet chili for years UNTIL NOW! Chris please keep working your magic. This sauce is insane!!!!!! P.S How long do you think this will last in the fridge. I followed your measurements and it's way too much for me and my partner to finish in one night.

Oh my gosh, this is going to be made next week while on vacation!!!! Cannot wait to try them!
Winona - i was thinking the same thing! That's what i'll do with this one :) Thanks, Chris!!!

chris, how did you get your dates to inhale? ;0) hahahahahahaha

I love this stuff! This is similar to a spicy mango chutney I used to get... mmmm

That sounds awesome, I love mangoes in spicy recipes! :D

It looks like the perfect compliment to spring rolls!

I would just like to say that this is the best sweet chili sauce I have ever tasted. I managed to have a couple of bits of cracker with some on before Chris polished the lot off! Wowee it is fabulous. Tastes just like the ‘real’ thing, actually, way better than the ‘real’ thing.
