Sambal is one of the culinary delights that is inseparable from Indonesian cuisine. Almost every region even has its own variant of chili sauce, ranging from chili paste, sambal matah, to sambal baja, all of which offer a unique and appetizing taste . However, in general, chili sauce is known for its spicy taste and distinctive aroma.
Unfortunately the process of making chili sauce, especially when fried, can be a challenge for some. Frying chili sauce requires caution because frying chilies can cause hot oil to explode. This is not only potentially dangerous, but also makes the cooking process difficult.
To overcome this, a number of people usually prick the chilies one by one. However, there are also those who choose to split them so that the chilies don't explode when exposed to hot oil. Indeed, this method is very effective, but if there are a lot of chilies to be processed, it will certainly take more time just to pierce or split the chilies.
Instead, you can use a trick from TikTok user @iggokulinerjambi when you want to make chili sauce. Through his personal TikTok account, he admitted that he had his own trick so that fried chilies don't explode when cooked into chili sauce. Apart from that, the tricks used also make the chilies taste more delicious and spicy, you know.
