40 red Thai hot peppers or Ata wewe(you may reduce how much you want or add more if you like the heat)
I habanero pepper or Ata-rodo(optional)
1 large purple onion
2onga cubes. Any bouillon works
salt to taste
2 cups and ¼ of vegetable or sunflower oil
Instructions
wash all the peppers and onions. In a chopper or blender, roughly blend or chop all the ingredients except the Onga cubes, oil and salt
Drain the blended mix through a fine mesh sieve
In a heavy bottomed pot, heat the oil. Pour in the pepper mix and fry for a few minutes; then add the Onga cubes and salt to taste. Slightly cover and fry the mix on low heat for about an hour; making sure to stir ocassionally. Once the sauce is done, the sauce will look darker and the oil will float to the top.
Drain off any excess oil before serving with any side or store in the fridge or freezer with the oil floating on the top. The oil serves as a preservative for the sauce
