Pili-Pili Sauce

A traditional and easy hot sauce from Rwanda. Pronounced "pee-lee pee-lee", also spelled pilipili. From the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean, this word is used throughout tropical Africa to refer to hot red peppers and sauces made from them, and foods cooked with these peppers or sauces. Ingredient notes: - Regarding chillies- traditionally very hot chillies are used but if you prefer less spice then use chillies of your choice. The same goes for seeds- include seeds to add more heat and exclude to reduce heat This recipe makes one small bowl, enough to serve 10 if hot and using a little or 5-6 if using more generous portions. Store in a clean jar or pot in the fridge. It will last for 1-2 weeks. Recipe tested and photographed by Miriam
