Red Hot Chilli Pepper....review of Chilli Sauces





Hello everyone!!!! I am so excited today....why??? because I am gonna share with you all a review of different types of chilli sauces that I ever tried before...I hope this will guide you to buy an appropriate chilli sauce for a certain type of foods....after all it all depends on your taste of how you would like your meal to be treated.....I appreciate that different person has their own personal style....ok lets started....





This is my favourite Maggi Chilli Sauce ever....my mum used to serve it with spring rolls or any type of dessert since I was a kid. Its pretty easy to find this chilli sauce outside my hometown including Ireland/UK. So its not a big deal for me to get this chilli sauce whenever I needed. Normally I buy it at oriental shop but sometimes certain tesco retail shop or dunnes store sells this items too. Sometimes it can be out of stock but most of the time it wont be.

Like any other chilli sauce, Maggi chilli sauce comes in different added flavours such as extra hot, with garlic, with black/white pepper etc. I have only try original, extra hot and with garlic flavour. BUt I still prefer the original flavour coz original is always the best!!! So what type of food I normally eat with Maggi chilli sauce or what type of food I use it as part of the ingredients? I serve it with spring roll, jemput-jemput udang/ikan bilis (this is fried wheat floor added with water and prawn/anchioves), fried noodles, hot dogs, burger, fish crackers..etc,etc. My sweet and sour sauce won't be a perfect sauce without this chilli sauce from Maggi. Sometimes I put some chilli sauce in fried rice noodle recipe...


Ok what's up next? Its a very famous chilli sauce ever in Ireland which is available in almost Irish retail shop.....its a Thai sweet chilli sauce. You can find it in many brands such as MaePloy, Mr Chef, etc, etc....For me it all taste the same....its hot and sweet....unlike Maggi's, Thai chilli sauce has more sweetness therefore I only prefer it for certain foods such as spring roll and jemput-jemput. I dont go with burger or hotdog because it does not taste just right...if you cant handle hotness too much, this is a perfect choice for you...



Its also available in Mr Chef brand with exact same bottle and label.....haha....and its cheap!!!



This one from MaePloy is also cheap...easy to find it at oriental/halal shops.....


Chilli sauce from Sriracha offer you a totally different taste from previous types....the sauce is like a paste, less liquidness compare to the rest. What I can say, the taste is hot and sour, definitely not sweet at all. So far I can substitute it with Maggi chilli sauce in any food especially if Maggi's is not available. But to make sweet and sour sauce, I still need one from Maggi. Beware for someone who can not handle spicy food, just be cautious whenever you try Sriracha sauce okey?? if you like it Im glad =)





Lingham's Chilli sauce come in a variety of added flavours....normally I find only the original and with garlic in many retail shops. For me the taste is quite strong....its a little bit more of everything...its sweetness, saltness, hotness...all of these for are strong....however its still nice and tasty, suitable for almost any range food to add more spicyness in it....



Original Lingham's

With Garlic...yummy...


Last but not least is my other favourite chilli sauce from Italy.....TABASCO....Its totally different taste from Maggi, Lingham, Thai Sweet...its hot and sour...well...I have not try all ranges of Tabasco but thats what it is...the original recipe of tabasco sauce....I recommend this if you have a barbeque in the house....Does not matter whether its chicken, beef or any barbeque, its less flavour without Tabasco....



These are just my own personal opinion on different types of chilli sauce I ever tried. After all, you can try all the chilli sauce under the sun if you want some hotness in your foods. Best of Luck!!!
