# Mango Habanero Hot Sauce

:dart:Easy ·:clock4:30 Minutes

### Ingredients

* 6-8 Habanero or Scotch Bonnet chilis, halved
* 1-2 medium onions, quartered
* 4 garlic cloves
* 1-2 medium tomatoes, halved
* 1 ripe mango, roughly chopped
* 2 limes (juiced)
* 2 parts apple cider vinegar
* 1 part water
* 1 part spiced rum
* 2 Tbsp honey
* 1 Tbsp brown sugar
* 1 tsp cumin
* 1 tsp allspice
* 1 tsp ground ginger
* Salt to taste

### Directions

Place the chopped chilis, onions, garlic and tomatoes on a lightly greased baking sheet and broil on high until browned (just before charred).

Place in a blender along with the rest of the ingredients. Blend until desired consistency is reached, adding liquid in the above proportions as needed.

Pour the sauce into a pan and simmer/reduce for 10-15 minutes and adjust seasoning to taste.

### Variants

* Use peaches instead of mango
* Use less potent chilis for a more mild sauce
* Grill the vegetables for a smokier flavor
