This is the PERFECT Nandos Hot Sauce recipe...and you can spice it up to whatever heat level you like! As tasty as the original Nandos hot sauce is, you are going to love this replica Nandos Hot Sauce!

Piri Piri chicken is traditionally a Portuguese dish, but Nandos is an International restaurant that originated in South Africa.

** I have been getting questions about the use of citric acid because I already use lemons in this recipe. Citric acid doesn't really have a flavour, if I used more lemons then I am adding more lemon flavour. The citric acid is adding more acid to the sauce without the extra lemon flavour...to help this sauce be safer (more acidic = more shelf stable) **

I tested the sauce with a pH meter and it came out at 4.4 so it should be shelf-stable. Test it yourself to be sure, and make sure you keep things clean during prep and cooking. I would keep it in the fridge once you start using it though!


Ingredients:

30-40 Piri Piri Peppers (you can use other birds eye, or Super Chilli)
6 Cayenne Peppers
4 Ring of Fire Peppers
1 Large White Onion
5 Cloves of garlic
1 Large Lemon (or 2 small lemons)
1/2 TBSP Salt
2 TBSP Vinegar (distilled white preferably)
1 TBSP Dried Rosemary
2 TBSP Vegetable Oil
1/2 TSP Citric Acid (optional) - https://geni.us/citricacid

(If you want to reduce the spice to around the Medium heat Nandos sauce, use 10 Piri Piri peppers and 1 Ring of Fire pepper.)

Blend all the ingredients together and simmer for 10-15 minutes
