TAMARIND SAUCE

Serve: 1

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon                            Tamarind paste

1 tablespoon                            Fish sauce

1 tablespoon                            Water

2 tablespoon                           Soft brown sugar

1 teaspoon                               Lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon                           Chilli flakes

Method

-Gently heat the tamarind paste, soft brown sugar, fish sauce, lemon juice, chilli flakes and water in a small saucepan until the sugar is dissolved. It should take only 1-2 minutes. 

-Remove the saucepan from the heat. In goes the shallots, garlic and coriander. Gently fold the ingredients together.

-Transfer this rich, intensely sweet and sour sauce into a sauce bowl.

-It is a great dipping sauce for grilled or barbequed seafood for example; seabass, salmon or grilled king prawns.

Tip:

-Tamarind sauce is super versatile. It is great for marinating or dipping barbeque meats, burger topping or dressing on top of deep-fried fish.

-Make sure you get a good quality Tamarind sauce which I get from Waitrose and Partners.
