Ingredients

Instructions

  • Add the vinegar, water and sugar to a pan and heat over a medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
  • Add the jalapenos and green chili (if using) to a blender or food processor and pulse to break down. Don't over mix, just pulse a few times, you don't want to make a paste.
  • Add the processed jalapeno to the pot and bring to the boil.
  • Simmer for 5 minutes and then take off the heat.
  • Mix together the cornflour and 6 tablespoons of water and pour into the pot. Stir for a minute or so to help thicken the sauce.

Notes

  • Pulse don't blend the jalapeños. If you over blend them, they will be too liquidy.
  • This sauce will thicken as it cools. Once cooled, if you prefer a thicker sauce, simply reheat it and stir in more cornflour and water.
  • Let the sauce cool completely before storing.
  • Nutritional values are based on one of 18 servings.
