This recipe is quick and easy. Only have to simmer for 30 minutes! It started as a very saucy Coney Island hot dog sauce. I prefer a meatier chili sauce, but if you prefer it saucy with less meat, reduce ground round to 1/2 pound meat.

- Serve 'em up: The restaurant serves the sausage split in half (one half per dog) to make room and take on the chili sauce better. Use Hawaiian Sweet Hot Dog Buns, cover with chili, and then desired ingredients: common is chili first, then mustard, then diced onion on top, and with peppers and pickles on the side. Optional: shredded cheese cheddar jack mix on top of the onions.

THAI SWEET CHILI SAUCE
Similiar to Mae Ploy. Additions may be added...ginger, cilantro, etc. Use for dipping chicken fingers, spring rolls, wantons, Crab Ragoon, grilled chicken, fried calamari...and the list goes on. (Note: Traditionally, Thai Sweet Chili sauce is not thickened with starch, but rather cooked into a syrupy consistancy. There's some benefit to thickening with starch and using less sugar.)

Steps:
- Keeping the seeds makes for a hotter end product, removing less so. Keep in mind it will be hotter the first day and dissipates over time. Resist the urge to taste and redip your spoon. Enzymes in saliva breaks down starches and will eventually make it watery -- that is in my humble opinion.
- In a food processor blend together the garlic, red peppers, sugar, water, vinegar and salt into a puree; transfer to a sauce pan.
- Bring mixture to a boil and simmer until the mixture begins to thicken and garlic and peppers bits slightly soften, about 3 minutes.
- Combine cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Whisk into the sugar/pepper mixture. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Cool completely before storing in refrigerator.

SPICY CHICKEN & BROCCOLI IN CHILI GARLIC SAUCE (LOW CARB)
Always on the quest to find good low carb meals, this is one that we all love. Adjust the amount of the Chili Garlic Sauce you use depending on how spicy you like this dish. You can always add more at the table but you can't take it out!! :-) If we are able to have Dreamfield's pasta, I serve this over their spaghetti noodles and it is delicious (add 5 grams of digestible carbs for Dreamfield's). OR it is great just like it is for super low carb!

CONEY ISLAND CHILI DOG SAUCE
After countless searches for a good Coney Island sauce, I stumbled on this one at another cooking website. Most recipes I had tried were just too sweet, this is a good Midwest-style Coney sauce. I didn't follow the measurements to the letter - just eyeballed it; and I added a couple dashes of hot sauce to kick up the heat a bit.

Steps:
- Brown ground beef in a skillet, adding onions halfway through. Add minced garlic when meat is nearly done.
- Add remaining ingredients; stir well to combine. Simmer over low heat 15 minutes.
- Serve over hot dogs, Coney Island style! Top with shredded sharp cheddar if desired.
Tips:
- Choose the right tomatoes. Vine-ripened tomatoes are best for chili sauce because they have a sweeter flavor. If you can't find vine-ripened tomatoes, use Roma tomatoes instead.
- Roast the tomatoes before making the sauce. Roasting the tomatoes will help them develop a deeper flavor. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on the stovetop.
- Use a variety of chili peppers. The type of chili peppers you use will determine the heat level of your sauce. For a mild sauce, use Anaheim or poblano peppers. For a medium sauce, use serrano peppers. For a hot sauce, use cayenne or habanero peppers.
- Add some spices to the sauce. Spices such as cumin, chili powder, and paprika will add depth of flavor to your sauce.
- Simmer the sauce for a while. Simmering the sauce will help the flavors to meld together. The longer you simmer the sauce, the thicker it will become.
- Taste the sauce as you go. Adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more chili peppers, spices, or vinegar.
Conclusion:
Chili sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used on a variety of dishes. It can be used as a dipping sauce, a marinade, or a cooking sauce. It can also be used to make chili, soups, and stews. With so many different ways to use it, chili sauce is a must-have in any kitchen.
