Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

Please use cider vinegar - gives better finish than malt vinegar. I use a mild chilli (Bell) or medium hot chilli (Birds Eye) because I feel that a sweet sauce should be mild and not burn your mouth out. Use this for chicken, fish - any light flavoured meat.
