Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Condiment

Time 1h20m

Yield Makes 4 small jars

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 red peppers, deseeded and roughly chopped
10 red chillies, roughly chopped
finger-sized piece fresh root ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
8 garlic cloves, peeled
400g can cherry tomatoes
750g golden caster sugar
250ml red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Tip the peppers, chillies (with seeds), ginger and garlic into a food processor, then whizz until very finely chopped. Scrape into a heavy-bottomed pan with the tomatoes, sugar and vinegar, then bring everything to the boil. Skim off any scum that comes to the surface, then turn the heat down to a simmer and cook for about 50 mins, stirring occasionally.
  • Once the jam is becoming sticky, continue cooking for 10-15 mins more, stirring frequently so that it doesn't catch and burn. It should now look like thick, bubbling lava. Cool slightly, transfer to sterilised jars, then leave to cool completely. Keeps for 3 months in a cool, dark cupboard - refrigerate once opened.

The sweet, savory, and spicy condiment called Nam prik pao is the classic garnish for tom yum noodles, but it's too good to be relegated to one single use.

Provided by America's Test Kitchen

Categories     Condiments

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup mild vegetable oil (for frying)
2 large (4 oz) shallots (sliced thin)
4 large (1 oz) garlic cloves (sliced thin)
10 dried arbol chiles (stemmed, halved lengthwise, seeds reserved)
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice (plus extra for seasoning (2 limes))
2 tablespoons fish sauce (plus extra for seasoning)

Steps:

  • Set a fine-mesh strainer over a heatproof bowl. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, warm the oil and shallots, stirring frequently, until shallots are deep golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.☞TESTER TIP: Keep a close eye on the shallots. Once they start browning, they color very quickly.
  • Using a slotted spoon, move the shallots to a second bowl. Add garlic to hot oil in saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, dump the garlic into the bowl with the shallots.
  • Add the arbol chiles and half of the reserved seeds to the hot oil and cook, stirring constantly, until the chiles turn deep reddish brown, about 1 minute. Pour oil through the prepared strainer and into the bowl; reserve oil and add the chiles to the bowl with the shallots and garlic. Do not wash saucepan.
  • In a blender or mini food processor, blend the shallot mixture, sugar, and lime juice until a thick paste forms, 45 to 60 seconds, scraping down sides of container as needed. If the mixture isn't blending well, drizzle in a little extra lime juice.
  • Return the paste to the now-empty saucepan, add the fish sauce and 2 tablespoons of reserved oil. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thickened and has a jam-like consistency, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Season with extra lime juice, extra fish sauce, and salt, to taste. (Jam can be refrigerated for up to 1 month.)

Tips:

  • Choose the right chilies: Use a variety of chilies to create a complex flavor profile. Some good options include red Fresno chilies, jalapeños, and habaneros. If you're not sure how spicy you want your jam to be, start with a milder chili like a poblano or Anaheim pepper.
  • Roast the chilies: Roasting the chilies brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the chilies in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or you can grill them over medium heat until they're charred and blistered.
  • Use fresh ginger and garlic: Fresh ginger and garlic add a lot of flavor to sweet chili jam. Be sure to grate or mince the ginger and garlic before adding it to the jam.
  • Simmer the jam until it thickens: It will take about 30 minutes for the jam to thicken. Be sure to stir the jam occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Taste the jam and adjust the seasonings: Once the jam has thickened, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more sugar, vinegar, or salt.

Conclusion:

Sweet chili jam is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It's great on chicken, fish, and shrimp, and it can also be used as a dipping sauce for spring rolls, wontons, and other appetizers. It's also a great addition to sandwiches, wraps, and burgers. Sweet chili jam is a delicious and easy-to-make condiment that will add a touch of sweetness and spice to your meals.
