Recipes with Chili sauce
4 recipes
There are 4 recipes here that use Chili sauce, and every one of them is scored against what is actually in your fridge before it is shown. The quickest is Sausages in Spicy Tomato Sauce at 12 minutes; the longest, Eggs in Padang-Style Sauce, takes 30. 1 of them finish in twenty minutes or less, which is usually what matters on a weeknight.
None of these need an oven, an air fryer, or a microwave — a stove and a pan is enough. 2 are vegetarian. 1 have no chili at all, so they work for children. 3 are properly spicy.
Chili sauce turns up most often alongside Tomato sauce, Onion, Chicken egg and Sausage — if you have one or two of those as well, more of this list becomes cookable tonight rather than after a shopping trip. Add what you have to your fridge and the recipes reorder themselves around it, with anything missing collected into a shopping list.
Sausages in Spicy Tomato Sauce
Ten minutes from fridge to table. Score the sausages so the sauce gets inside instead of sitting on the skin.
