Tip… wear gloves!!

Slice the chilies in half and remove the ribs and seeds. If you like some heat leave some ribs on. Roughly chop and place in a food processor.

You can also pound the chilies in a mortar and pestle, which is more authentic and is great for tenderizing the chilli. I do this after it’s been through the food processor.

Bring the water and sugar to the boil, add the vinegar and chilies and leave to simmer for 15 mins

Mix the corn flour with a little water and add to the sauce, cook for another 2 minutes, stirring as it thickens

Let the mixture cool and then jar it.

Put a serving of sauce into a bowl and stir in the dill and coriander. Leave this aside for the flavours to infuse.
