Notes from Rouba
You can burn your eyes if you rub them due to the heat of the pepper. Always wear gloves.
Method
Step 1.
Place the garlic, onion, and fresh chilli in the bowl of a food processor and process until finely chopped.
Step 2.
Transfer to a pot. Season with the herbs and simmer on low heat for approximately 20 minutes, occasionally stirring, so the mixture doesn’t burn.
Remove from heat and stir through the white vinegar. Transfer to clean glass jars, and let cool. Top with olive oil before storing in the refrigerator.
