Ingredients

  • 1 large mango peeled and chopped
  • a whole pineapple chopped or (3 cups, drained)
  • 1 yellow bell pepper optional, for a thickener sauce
  • ½ cup of agave nectar or other sweetener optional and depending on the sweetness of the fruit
  • 1 teaspoon ginger powder
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • 1 tablespoon of onion powder
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tablespoon of thyme
  • ¼ cup of vinegar
  • the juice of a lime
  • 1-5 scotch bonnet(s) depending on your level of heat
  • 2 tablespoon of tapioca starch mixed in ½ cup of water

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients excluding the thyme and tapioca starch to your blender or food processor.
  • Puree into a smooth consistency (strain if needed)
  • Pour the contents into a saucepan and add the thyme.
  • Bring to the boil while stirring then reduce the heat to low.
  • Stir in the tapioca starch/water.
  • Simmer the hot sauce on low for 10 minutes 
  • Cool down completely then pour into sterilized glass jar(s) and refrigerate.

Notes

  • Use latex gloves. You can may want to use gloves if you are using peppers especially if you are handling a few of them. This is to ensure that you do not rub your eye(s) or otherwise with them on. Once you have finished discard them immediately.
  • Sterile bottle. Make sure the bottle has been sterilized before pouring sauce into the bottle(s).
  • Keep the sauce refrigerated at all times for longevity.
  • It's okay to use canned, fresh or frozen mango/pineapple.
  • The level of heat you require is totally up to you, see the heat factor paragraph for more details
  • In order to omit the additional use of sugar, use fruit that is super soft because it will be sweeter. A firm mango isn't very sweet but a soft one is, you can even smell it, same applies to fresh pineapple.
  • If your blender or food processor isn't very powerful, you may need to add a splash of water to get the mango/pineapple to puree.
