Hi edwina, 20% vinegar is a safe amount. But don't forget lemon is also acidic, so add vinegar bit at a time.
Too much vinegar is not a good taste.
Ph strips are cheap for testing the acid levels.
Bring to boil and let it high simmer for 20 minutes, that will kill all nasties.
Pour hot into hot steralised jars , put lid on and turn upside down for 5 mins then turn over
Hope this helps

Was in hot soapy water , rinse, shake off excess water and put in low oven for 10 mins+
Always put hot sauces in to hot jars  otherwise you get broken glass or temp of sauce drops to low to preserve

Heres the one that I make EC-



Similar to Mr Naga but a lot hotter, and a lot more versatile, as in it doesn't overpower a dish as much as Mr Naga, which IMO is a strong flavour that can ruin a curry !  ;)

Where did you buy your chillies from Edwina?

Hi there!

Got the chillis from the local Makkah store...

That sauce is all well and good but it's the taste of Mr Naga I actually like, at least in a Rogan Josh and this experiment is designed to reduce the heat but keep the flavour, which is why I'm trying to get the Mr Naga taste.

Horses for courses and all that. I'll keep a look out for it, thanks!

edit: Oh that's your sauce? Nice one!

Mustard seeds and mustard oil feature IMHO.

Mustard seeds possibly but I doubt they use mustard oil because they'd have to declare it on the label or risk falling foul of European food regs.

How funny that large quantities of the sauce were recalled because they failed to declare that the sauce contained mustard!

That's why I'm finding it so hard to source....Any idea if they've sorted the problem out?

Hmm where are you based? Any local Asian store should have it. Any decent sized town should have it. There are about 15 shops that are stocking it in my town I expect!
