Growing up in Malaysia, food was a way to connect and express care, with every dish telling its own story. When my mum watched my previous Hainanese chicken rice video, her heartfelt question—“Where’s the chili sauce?”—sparked a realization that the dish was incomplete without its signature condiment. Today, I’m sharing a recipe for homemade Malaysian Hainanese Chicken Rice Chili Sauce, crafted with fresh chilies, garlic, ginger, lime juice, salt, and sugar. This recipe celebrates tradition, allowing you to control the spice level, enhance freshness, and preserve the soul of Malaysian cuisine. Let’s honor the flavors of our roots, one delicious spoonful at a time.
