About this recipe

Sweet Chili Silverbeet sauce is the ultimate sauce to serve alongside your Christmas chicken roast recipe; creamy with a hint of sweet chili glaze.  Hands down, this is one of the easiest sauces to make. All you have to do is cook the silverbeet and combine it with the rest of the ingredients. A unique twist to the traditional selek dip to compliment your festive table, To me, sweet chili silverbeet sauce is THE TASTE of the holiday. A sweet-spicy moreish sauce to replace the traditional cranberry sauce.

Notes from Rouba

  • You can substitute greek yogurt for tahini
  • Keep in mind that the quality of tahini can vary with different brands so it’s best to add the water gradually.
  • Hulled or Unhulled Tahini – What’s the difference?

 

Method

Step 1

Coarsely chop the silverbeet

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add chopped silverbeet. Cook until softened approximately 15-20 minutes.

When tender, but not too soft, drain.

Step 2.

Add crushed garlic, tahini, lemon, and tender silverbeet to a bowl, using a hand blender, blend until somewhat fine but still rustic.

Add sweet chili and hot sauce and water as required for a sauce consistency. Stir well to combine.

If the sauce is too thick, simply add some water to thin it out.
