hey what’s up my spicy food loving
friends I know you love hot sauces as
much as I do and one you’re going to
absolutely love is called Perry Perry
sauce or also called ply pilly Perry
Perry is an African sauce with
Portuguese roots that is made with fiery
Chili Peppers and it’s super versatile
uh it’s really a sauce that was made
famous by a brand called nandos and uh
nandos Perry Perry is delicious uh
there’s also a number of other brands
that are out there but uh I like to make
a homemade version that I think you’re
going to love it really lets you
customize the sauce to pretty much
however you want it to be you can make
it milder or you can make it spicy and
uh when you make it homemade I think
this is pretty much the best Perry Perry
sauce around so uh all right let me show
you how to make
it all right homemade Perry Perry sauce
my friends I swear you guys are going to
be making this over and over again it’s
delicious nice and hot so um so the
recipe focuses on Chili Peppers
obviously and really you can use any
type of chili pepper that you want for
this recipe uh it’s actually perfect for
chili gardeners because you can uh mix
and match your chilies any of red
peppers from the garden um I like to mix
and match just depending on whatever
I’ve got on hand uh that year whatever
my Harvest brings me um but uh typically
this recipe focuses on African bird’s
eye chilies and African birds eye
chilies are nice and spicy good and hot
and the recipe calls for one pound of
chilies and if you used an entire pound
of African Bird’s eyes you’d have a
deliciously spicy hot sauce right here
um but today I’m going to tone it down
um mostly for Patty but you know we
don’t want to make everything super
crazy right um so I’m using 2 O of
bird’s eye and the rest I’m doing a 14
ounces of red bell pepper so it’s going
to have a nice delicious lower heat
flavor still be nice and spicy um but
the recipe C for one pound and you can
again you can use any chilies you want
for this so get your food processor
ready and I got a rough Chop on my
bird’s eyes here
and the rest of red bell peppers into
the processor and I have four plus
cloves of garlic and you can rough chop
if you need but it’s going in the
processor or extra garlic you know
gorgeous garlic and a teaspoon of smoked
paprika and a half a cup of chopped
cilantro and you can add more or less if
you want very adjustable and a/4 cup of
chopped basil Nando actually uses a
rosemary extract in theirs according to
their ingredients that I see um but you
can use rosemary in here if you’d like I
just really like it with basil and I
have a salt to
taste and lemon so we’re going to add a
whole a juice from a whole lemon and
it’s another you can add more if you’d
like and you can also add vinegar if you
prefer all right all right so now we’re
going to go ahead and process this like
[Music]
so okay scrape down the sides a little
bit if you need to and you can process
this as uh coarse or as uh thin as you’d
like usually uh when you buy Perry Perry
products that are you know made by
Artisan Brands like nandos and other
there’s a number of other ones um it’s
very smooth but you can make it coarse
if you’d like
to all right let’s check it out my
friends yep you you can see it’s nice
and uh smoothing out a bit here still
slightly chunky but smells amazing so at
this point you could cook this down
simmer it in a pan and meld all those
flavors um but you don’t have to cook it
you can use it as more of a raw sauce
and we’re going to add olive oil or
vegetable oil to uh emulsify it so let
me get this back on
here to get this
running and we’ll slowly drizzle in
olive oil and it you watch it thicken
up do a little bit slowly it’s a half a
cup
yes right let’s take a look oh yeah
brightens up the sauce it lightens it up
a bit you can see right here how uh oh
yeah it’s thickened up oh look at that
look at that Perry Perry
[Music]
sauce Perry Perry sauce my friends let’s
talk about uses again this is a a very
very versatile sauce that you can use in
so many different ways and you can also
adjust it uh to the heat level that you
really prefer as I did mention um make
it real spicy or even make it mild if
you want to um it’s outstanding as a dip
just kind of served as it is uh I love
it as a salsa sometimes you serve it
with some chips tortilla chips uh people
love that serve it with a veggie tray as
a dip for your vegetables you can even
swirl in a little bit of uh like Mexican
crma or sour cream to cream it up a
little a little bit if you wanted to for
that um even even something like a a
cocktail shrimp is great um it’s great
for any type of seafood you can use it
as a marinade and also a sauce so
anything off the grill or any kind of
seafood like white fish is great shrimp
um where it really shine Zone where it’s
most famous is Perry Perry chicken and
I’m I have a recipe for that on the
website and I can leave a link but I’m
doing a video for that very soon because
I love it and I miss it haven’t made it
in a while it’s yum man but it’s really
just U you can marinate some delicious
bone in chicken toss it on the grill um
you know and then use it as your
finishing sauce it is so good it’s great
for chicken wings too Perry Perry
chicken wings you will love this stuff
is perryi Perry a hot sauce well sure it
is I mean it’s absolutely nice and spicy
uh but if you want to treat it more like
a finishing kind of a hot sauce that you
drizzle onto all of your other Foods um
you can actually add more acidity to
this you can add some extra lemon juice
uh and or also some vinegar to bring the
uh more acidity to it I like to shoot
for uh pH of 3.5 or lower really for
more homek keeping and it’ll keep much
longer for you that way all right let’s
give it a
taste M oh yes delicious lemony really
the lemon really shines through nice
spice level even with the bell pepper in
there very uh very tasty I love the uh
the herbaceousness too with the the
basil and the cilantro yum yum I think
