Has anyone got a seriously good homemade chilli sauce recipie?

Click here. That should link you to a web-page with what sounds like a scorcher! I plan to give it a go myself. Good luck.

I 've tried this recipie some time ago and what I ended up with was a waterey, lumpy mess on the plate fullof little pieces of the chopped chilli which would get stuck between teeth etc. not pleasant. I poured the whole into a pan and gently simmered it down for an hour or so(which it doesn't tell you to do) and thinned it out again with a few tablespoons of water and some good old tomato ketchup, and boy o boy what a difference.beautiful flavour had developed with a kick that would blow your head off

Thanks for that, Blunderwoman. After I'd posted the website, I printed the recipe out so as to get the ingredients. Looking at it, I thought: "Hang on...what do you do to all this lot?" Accordingly, your vital informatioon is now scribbled on my recipe-sheet. Thanks once more.

Also given the price/rarity of scotch bonnets, next time I would grind them to a paste rather than chop, to completely max them out to their full evil potential!

Thanks Blunderwoman and Quizmonster.....it looks pretty lethal! Has anyone any other tried and tested homemade favourites that they might be willing to disclose?

If you really want to try something different that is amazing try making vanilla ice cream with a couple of Thai birds eye chillies. Stick to plain ice creams like vanilla and don't use too many chillies. The effect is interesting and a talking point. Scotch bonnet are too hot for this.
