WHAT DOES RED CHILLI PASTE TASTE LIKE?
It’s intensely hot, with a powerful kick of flavour and a concentrated consistency.
TIPS, TRICKS & HACKS
- Add to curries or use to pep up a Thai tom yum soup.
- Stir through pickled cucumbers or a spicy cabbage slaw.
- Make a dipping sauce for dumplings and tempura by stirring 1 part chilli paste and 1 part honey with 3 parts soy.
- Sizzle in oil with salad onions before tossing in cooked noodles. Sprinkle with sesame seeds to serve.
- Chilli and chocolate are a playful combination. Add a small amount of Red Chilli Paste to the batter of dark chocolate brownies and sprinkle with sea salt before baking.
- Mix with lemon juice, olive oil, smoked paprika and thyme leaves for a punchy marinade for chicken thighs.
EASY MEAL IDEA
Crispy chilli beef
This version of a Chinese restaurant favourite is simple to prepare. Make it veggie with tofu instead of beef.
- Dredge strips of beef in a Cooks' Ingredients Chinese 5 Spice-seasoned cornflour, then deep-fry in vegetable oil until crisp. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Blend 4 parts rice wine vinegar with 2 parts ketchup, 2 parts water and 1 part soy, adding Red Chilli Paste to taste. Set aside.
- Stir fry chunks of red and green pepper, the sliced white parts of salad onion and matchsticked carrot and ginger in a wok until starting to soften. Tip over the reserved vinegar-ketchup mix, allow to bubble for 2 minutes, then add the beef to the pan. Stir to coat and serve as soon as everything is piping hot.
