User review:
"This is a great sauce to go on fish, burgers, and nuggets. Love this sauce."
My ingredient notes:
- I used a little bit of rice vinegar here to balance the sweetness of the chili sauce. Rice vinegar adds tartness and has a nice, clean flavor that doesn't interfere with the chili and garlic flavors.
- Sweet chili sauce is a sweet, sour and garlicky sauce that is sold in bottles in most grocery stores. It's made from chili peppers but, unlike hot sauce or Sriracha, it's mostly sweet and not very spicy at all.
- Aioli was originally an emulsion of just olive oil and garlic. Over time, the definition of the sauce has broadened and it now includes flavored garlic mayonnaise sauces.
