🌶️ Teddy's Sambal Tumis (Malayan chili sauce) step by step
- PREP WORK- Soak chilies in hot water an hour before use. Dried red chilies will fully plump up when ready to use. Remember to deseed..
- SPICE PASTE - Blend all ingredients for SPICE PASTE to a smooth paste. Add small amounts of water to help the process but do not flood it. Use just enough to keep the blades moving. Hardy herbs/rhizomes like galangal should be cut small first before blending, so there are no long fibrous strands to contend with when eating..
- COOK SAMBAL TUMIS - 1. Bring a wok to medium high heat and add oil. Wok should be mildly smoking but not burning hot..
-
- Add spice paste carefully. It will sizzle and splatter. Stir to prevent burning..
-
- Allow to cook for 6 -12 mins until ‘oil breaks’ and separates from paste or when dry, clumpy and translucent. We are just seeing that everything is cooked through in the spice paste before proceeding..
-
- Add 2 cups of water and tamarind juice just before it dries out and burns, season the sambal with salt, palm sugar and date sugar..
-
- Stir and lower heat to prevent burning. It should still be gently bubbling. Add the optional knot of pandan leaves to lend a vanilla-like aroma..
-
- Allow the sambal to come together, every few minutes giving it a swirl to prevent burning. Add water if it begins to dry out – not too much, no more than half cup each time..
-
- When the oil floats and the color has changed to a dark crimson shade, the sambal is done (about 35 mins)..
-
- Adjust with salt or additional tamarind juice to increase sourness. Turn off the heat, remove the pandan knot if added..
-
- When the sambal has cooled down, spoon in honey and mix well. Keep refrigerated or freeze in small batches for reuse on another day or when you make Nasi Lemak..
