Peri Peri Sauce Recipe

Peri Peri (also known as Piri Piri) is a spicy, tangy sauce made from African bird’s eye chili, garlic, lemon, and other flavorful ingredients. It’s great for marinating meats, especially chicken, or used as a condiment or dipping sauce.


Ingredients:

  • 10-12 fresh bird's eye chilies (or 2 tablespoons dried peri peri flakes)
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 2 tablespoons paprika (preferably smoked paprika)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (or lime juice)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon oregano or thyme for added flavor

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chilies:

    • If you're using fresh bird's eye chilies, chop them into small pieces (and remove the seeds for less heat). If you're using dried chili flakes, you can skip this step.
  2. Blend the Ingredients:

    • In a blender or food processor, combine the chilies, garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, lemon juice, sugar (if using), black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Add the white vinegar and olive oil.
  3. Process until Smooth:

    • Blend everything until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. If it’s too thick, add a bit more olive oil or vinegar to reach your desired consistency.
  4. Taste and Adjust:

    • Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. If you want it spicier, you can add more chilies or chili flakes. If you prefer a more tangy flavor, add a bit more lemon juice or vinegar.
  5. Optional Infusion:

    • If you want a more infused flavor, you can let the sauce sit for about 30 minutes to an hour before using it. This allows the flavors to meld together.
  6. Store:

    • Store the peri peri sauce in an airtight jar or bottle in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Use it as a marinade for chicken, especially for grilling or roasting.
  • Serve as a dipping sauce for fries, grilled meats, or vegetables.
  • Drizzle over grilled seafood or salads for extra spice and flavor.

Tips:

  • For a milder version, remove the seeds from the chilies or use a milder chili variety.
  • You can also add a bit of tomato paste to thicken the sauce if you prefer a more textured sauce.
