Love Peri-Peri but that sounds a little explosive.

Have had some home made stuff out in the Caribbean, that was also suitably hot.

dont know how they make this stuff but it has a texture of tinned chopped plum tomato 'juice'....very thin...with a small chopped lime in the jar.

the jar is a Cross and Blackwell (says so on the lid :Doh:) cast-off with her own label stuck on.

no ingredients...no sell by/use by....just a name and address. :Cool:

very nice in very small amounts :thumb:

Making Hot Chilli Sauce - Piri-Piri Sauce
It was probably the Portuguese who introduced the Chilli Pepper as we know it to Europe and the Far East. They were probably also the first to use peppers to create a hot sauce, not hot maybe by today's standards, but nevertheless piri-piri is the Portuguese Original. Look for Cayenne peppers and if you can't get them New Mexico or pequin.

4 chilli peppers, cleaned and finely chopped
juice of one Lemon
3 cloves of garlic, minced
One tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley, (optional)
one tablespoon Paprika
4 tablespoons of Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Salt
Remove stems and seeds from peppers - take the necessary precautions when handling hot peppers.
Grind and mix all ingredients to a fine paste by hand or use a blender or food processor. If you want to go hotter add ground cayenne pepper of pepper flakes to taste. Cook in a hot frying-pan for a few minutes.
Store in a sterilized jar in the refrigerator. The flavour will develop over the following week.

There ya go ::bigsmile: Enjoy.
Mike

you are correct about the Portuguese origin.....Mozambique was a portuguese colony and still has a large portuguese influence. :thumb:

Yes, is great is it not. The first time I teased Piri-piri Gambas was in Mozambique. in a bar called the Marlin Rouge, I have been in with the Portuguese food ever since.
