Ingredients You’ll Need

You’ll need-

Habanero chilies (sliced into half and seed removed if needed)

Mango – Sweet ripe mango with creamy flesh and little or no fiber works best. I used Indian Alphonso mango, for friends from west please use Ataulfo mango

Carrots – adds body to the sauce

Onions – enhances flavors

Garlic – to add flavor

Salt

Rice wine vinegar (or plain white vinegar)

Lime juice – to balance out a little bit of heat

CAUTION – DO NOT dice habaneros bare-handed. And then absentmindedly touch your eyes, face, nose. You don’t want to make that mistake.

The oil residues stay in your hands even after washing, and definitely do not wash your hands and splash water on your face to clean them up. You’ll end up crying, sniffing and drooling the whole time. Because the stinging and burning pain that you get in your eyes (or any part of the face that gets a chili touch) can last beyond several flushes with water. You definitely don’t want that!

ALWAYS WARE RUBBER OR LATEX GLOVES WHILE HANDLING HABANERO CHILIES OR ANY CHILIES! Habanero peppers are related to one of the hottest peppers in the world – scotch bonnet! So be careful!

How To Make Habanero Hot Sauce?

This homemade hot sauce recipe is real simple to make. When we say simple, we really mean it. All you do is blend roughly chopped ingredients in food processor. And simmer it for 15 minutes.

Preparing The Habanero Peppers-

Wear your latex gloves before you start. Wash habanero peppers and pat dry them in paper towel Remove the green stem on the chilies and roughly chop them. Chop roughly.

I left the seeds on for half of the chilies and removed for other half as I was aiming for spicy sauce that was bearable for my palate. For milder spice please remove all the seeds from all the habanero chilies. You want the flavor profile of the sauce to be centered on the heat.

Blend it all-

Throw in all the ingredients into a blender, blend until smooth. You want a nice liquid-y sauce. Noticed few seeds of habaneros in my sauce! That was the best part for me. The heat from the seeds!

Cooking the sauce-

Tip the sauce into a sauce pan and simmer on medium heat for 10-15 minutes with constant stirring.

Word of caution – keep your face far away from the pot in which the sauce is simmering. The hot steam of the sauce is quite intense with the heat and if you sniff it in, it hurts the nose! As it’s quite spicy!

FAQS

How Spicy Is This Hot Sauce?

You can pretty much tame the spiciness in this hot sauce just to the amount right for you! it’s totally customizable!
Ways to tame the heat of the hot sauce recipe:-
1. Remove and discard ALL seeds from habanero peppers to make it less spicy
2. You can replace habanero peppers with other less hot peppers to make the hot sauce
3. Use sweeter mango to tame down the heat
4. Use more sugar than mentioned in the recipe

How To Properly Store Hot Sauce?

Allow the sauce to cool completely. You can press the sauce through a sieve to remove seeds and residues, but I decided not to sieve it.
Transfer the sauce into sterile jars filling it up ¾ leaving space on top for expansion while you store. Place sauce in air tight bottles and store in refrigerator until use.

How Long Will Habanero Hot Sauce Recipe Keep?

In the fridge it can last for several weeks.
Follow correct canning/jarring procedures for longer storage! I’d say several months if canned properly!

How To Use Homemade Mango Habanero Hot Sauce?

Ingredients

  • 5 habanero chilies with seeds if you like it fiery hot, seeds removed if you want to mellow down the heat
  • 10 ounce mango pulp chopped or pureed
  • 1 carrot diced
  • 1 white onion diced
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup rice vinegar or white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • ¼ cup sugar If you want to cut down the heat, I skipped sugar

Instructions

  • Wear your latex gloves first before you do anything. Wash habanero peppers and pat dry them in paper towel which you can toss in trash after use along with gloves. Remove the green stem on the chilies and roughly chop them. You can cut them into halves, as you need to blend everything later. So don’t bother dicing the habanero chilies very fine. I left the seeds on for half of the chilies and removed for other half as I was aiming for spicy sauce that was bearable for my palate. For milder spice please remove all the seeds from all the habanero chilies.

  • Throw in all the ingredients into a blender, blend until smooth.

  • Tip the sauce into a sauce pan and simmer on medium heat for 10-15 minutes with constant stirring.

  • Allow the sauce to cool completely. You can press the sauce through a sieve to remove seeds and residues, but I decided not to sieve it.

  • Transfer the sauce into sterile jars filling it up ¾ leaving space on top for expansion while you store. Place sauce in air tight bottles and store in refrigerator until use.

  • Drizzle sauce over tacos, grilled shrimp, ribs, chicken – everything that you want to kick up the heat and flavors! You can gift bottles of these to friends and family too.
