Schezwan Sauce

One of my favorite and spiciest recipes of all time. Any dish you cook using this sauce will be gone in no time. So, I strongly recommend you cook larger portions. Here's the recipe with out further delay!!

Ingredients:

Dried red chillies - 60
Garlic cloves - 45
Ginger - 5 tbsp
Tomato ketchup - 6 tbsp
Soy sauce - 2 tbsp
Sugar - 4 tsp
Oil - 1/2 cup
Salt - to taste
Pepper - to taste
Water - 1.5 cups

Procedure:
  1. Cut open the dried chillies and remove all the seeds. Boil these (seedless) chillies in about 1.5 cups of water for about 5 to 9 mins. 
  2. Drain the water and blend the cooked chillies in to a fine paste
  3. Heat oil in a separate sauce pan. Add in crushed garlic and ginger and saute till they turn golden color.
  4. Add the pureed chilli paste from Step-3 and mix well. 
  5. Add tomato ketchup, Soy sauce, Sugar, Salt and Pepper and mix well. Cook for about 5 more minutes and remove from heat. 
  6. Let it cool and store it in a glass jar. 
Enjoy!!

Note: There are several Rice, Noodle & snack dishes that can be prepared with this sauce. Make sure that there are no seeds left in the chillies, as it is already super spice as is.
