Coming to the flavour part of the sauce, it is sweet, tangy and hot and I bet you will drizzle it over each and everything.

The spice level of the sauce depends on the type of chilli we are using in this recipe. If the chilli is too spicy, our sauce will also be spicy and vice versa. Vinegar and salt present in the sauce acts as preservatives. It is better to keep this sauce in room temperature for 2 days, so that the flavours may get balanced well.

Garlic provides a feel good taste for this sauce. You can see small garlic pieces from the picture I had shared. Yes, you will sometimes get a garlic kick as well. Sugar in the sauce makes it to last longer. Before transferring to a glass jar, make sure the jar is steriled properly. Thus we can store the sauce in a clean and efficient manner.
