Homemade low carb spicy stir fry sauce

Fun fact: there isn’t actually just one keto stir-fry sauce as the word “keto” is an abbreviation for ketogenic diet meaning a very low-carb diet, which turns the body into a fat-burning machine.

In essence, any seasoning could potentially be a keto stir-fry sauce as long as it’s low carbohydrates. It gets a little trickier when you turn plain seasoning into a sauce because that’s often where a lot of carbs are added.

Equipment

  • Cooking pot
  • Food processor or blender
  • Mesh

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup onion diced
  • 2 medium chile peppers (such as poblano, New Mexico or Anaheim), diced
  • 2 small habanero peppers or other small hot chile peppers, stemmed, halved and seeded (see Tip)
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pound tomatoes diced
  • 1 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1-3 tsp sugar add to taste and amount of sugar you want to put in

Instructions
 

  • Turn on the stove and set to medium-high heat and heat oil in a large saucepan. Toss in the garlic, habanero peppers, chile peppers and onions, then cook until the onion gets a brown color (this should take about 3-4 minutes.
  • Minimize heat and set the dial to medium, then add the sugar, salt, vinegar, and tomatoes. Stir occasionally and thoroughly for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes get liquified.
  • This time pour the mix over a blender or a food processor, then use the machine to make the remaining solids finer and the liquid thicker. Get a nylon mesh and set it on top of a medium-size bowl. Pour the thick mix on the nylon mesh and let it sieve to remove the remaining solids from the herbs and spices. Throw away the solids and let the sauce cool down for about 1 and 1/2 hours in room temperature.

Ketogenic asian hot sauce recipe

Tip: The spiciest part of the chile peppers is in its membranes where the seeds are also held in place.

It’s also the part where the capsaicin is most rich and the naturally occurring chemical which is an irritant for mammals is responsible for giving off the hot/spicy properties of chile peppers.

You can control the spiciness of your salsa or hot sauce by deciding the number of chopped membranes and seeds to go into the mix.

To avoid getting this irritant on your eyes, always keep in mind to wear protective gloves when you chop chile peppers or wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after you’ve chopped them.

To make beforehand: This hot sauce mixture can last for up to 6 months just as long as you keep it refrigerated.
