What makes the Thai Sweet Chili Sauce so special is the intense flavors. I just love how you get vivid and brilliant flavors in just one single spoon. It has a brilliant balance of flavors.

The moment you taste it you get an instant sweet taste. That subsides in an instant and you are left with a spicy taste. In my opinion, this Thai Sweet Chili Sauce is magical. If I was in India, I am sure I would have enjoyed this sauce with some parathas (Indian Flat Bread)

  • Deep Fry Chicken: In a skillet heat some oil. As the oil gets hot and smoky reduce the heat to medium-low and add chicken chunks. Do not add all at once. Make sure you fry them in batches. This will ensure that your chicken is being fried evenly. Once done, remove chicken from the skillet and keep it on a plate.
