Sugar-free chili sauce

This sugar-free chili sauce is so easy and quick to make using simple ingredients. It is savory, spicy, sweet and mildly tangy. If you prefer, you can make it less spicy by adjusting the amount of chili. At zero carb, you can enjoy this chili sauce guilt-free, and you can easily double or triple the recipe for a bigger batch.

1.  For best results, weigh the ingredients with a digital scale

2.  Add all the ingredients into a small saucepan (except the xanthan gum) and bring to a boil.

3.  Stir constantly and cook over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Adjust taste accordingly.

4.  Reduce heat and gradually sprinkle the xanthan gum, stir or whisk to combine. This is to prevent any lumps from forming. If you find that there are lumps formed after cooking, just blitz it with a handheld mixer until smooth.

5.  Once you get the right consistency, remove the pan from heat.

6.  Transfer the chili sauce into a clean and dry jar.  It will thicken slightly once cooled.
