Topic: Hot red sauce

[shark]

Does anyone know how to make the spicy red sauce they serve with sheik kebab.
It's tastes like it has mint sauce and tomato juice, with a chili kick.

thanks

Try this

Simple Pakora dipping sauce.

1. 250ml of good tomato ketchup
2. 250ml of water
3. Tsp. of salt
4. Tsp. of sugar
5. Tsp. of mint sauce.
6. Tblsp of lemon juice
7. Level Tsp. of chilli powder.

Just mix them all together and serve in a small bowl.


I got this off this forum, it was posted with a tandoori pakora recipe. I've tried it and it's pretty good.

Do the sugar and salt dissolve ok at room temp?

If you don't have lemon juice try some vinegar - it's the sweet and sour combo that you are after

Thanks all for your replies. Will give them both a go.

My favourite Indian in the UK was the Shamrat in Maidstone where this sauce is served.

So digging deeper into this I understand the sauce to be

"lal achar".

The main ingredients are mango, green chilli, tamamrind, lime And few of chefs secrect ingredients.

Still looking for the recipe. Hope this helps.

P.S. This was from the Shamrat in Maidstone, a fine place to eat.
