Sambal Kecap (Indonesian Style Sweet Dipping Sauce)



apologies. I have not got a chance to post new recipes ever since the birth of my son, Baby A. My days have been filled with feeding, changing diapers and taking a nap whenever I get a chance to. By the end of the day, it's all worth it though :). 

This is a recipe of one of my favourite dipping sauces. It's sweet and tangy with a kick of spiciness from Thai hot peppers. The lime juice is refreshing and wakes up all your taste buds. This is a recipe that has been passed down from one generation to another in my family. I like to serve it with fried fish, fried tofu, fried chicken or steamed seafood.

INGREDIENTS:
  • 8 red Thai chili, sliced
  • 6 shallots, sliced thinly
