Ingredients:

  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 1/4 cup minced onion
  • 1 -2 tbsp minced garlic
  • 4 -6 tsp tiny dried red chilies, crushed or 4 -6 tsp hot red pepper flakes
  • 1/3 cup finely minced fresh tomato
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 2 tsp molasses

Directions:

  1. In a small frying pant or in a wok, heat te oil and stir fry the onions and garlic.
  2. After a minute, add the hot pepper flakes or dried chiles.
  3. Reduce heat and stir constantly so the peppers don't burn.
  4. As soon as the flakes darken a little, add the rest of the ingredients and on the lowest heat, cook the sambal until most of the moisture has evaporated, about 15-20 minutes.
  5. The final product should be so well cooked that you can't detect the tomatoes.
  6. This recipe makes only a small amount, which is all you'll need. Refrigerated, this will keep for months.
