Trin for trin
- 1
Combine the red chili peppers, optional bird's eye chilies, shallots, and garlic in a food processor or mortar and pestle.
Ca. 3 min.
Kokkens note: For a more traditional, coarser texture, use a mortar and pestle.
- 2
Pulse or grind the ingredients until they form a coarse paste.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Avoid over-processing into a smooth puree; some texture is desirable.
- 3
Heat the vegetable oil in a small saucepan or wok over medium heat.
Ca. 2 min.
- 4
Add the chili paste to the hot oil and cook, stirring frequently, for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes fragrant and darkens in color.
Ca. 10 min.
Kokkens note: Constant stirring prevents the paste from burning and ensures even cooking.
- 5
Stir in the shrimp paste, tamarind paste, palm sugar, and salt until well combined.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Break up the shrimp paste with your spatula to help it dissolve evenly.
- 6
Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sugar is fully dissolved and the oil begins to separate from the paste.
Ca. 2 min.
- 7
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the fresh lime juice.
Ca. 1 min.

Allow the sambal to cool completely before transferring it to a clean, airtight jar.
