Sambal Oelek Ingredients
8
oz
(250g) fresh red chilies
1
tsp
salt
1
tsp
soft brown sugar
Instructions
This is the most basic sambal. To make other sambals, ingredients such as trassi or blachan, a firm paste made of rotted shrimp, and candlenuts are added to the mix.
Heat a heavy frying pan and put in the chilies after 2-3 minutes. Dry roast over a medium heat for a few minutes. Cool, then chop finely and pound to a paste with the salt and sugar.
The chili seeds may be taken out, or left in if you want a really fiery relish.
The sambal will keep for a week or so in a jar in the refrigerator.
