How to Make Piri Piri Sauce
- In a medium heavy saucepan, combine 1 cup red wine vinegar, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup red pepper flakes (adjust to your spice preference), 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add 6 cloves garlic, minced. Remove from heat and let the sauce cool completely to room temperature.
- Transfer the cooled sauce to a food processor or blender. Pulse until completely smooth.
- Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solids or bits of garlic skin for a silky smooth texture.
- Transfer the strained sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 7 days before using. The flavor will deepen and mellow during this time.
