sambal garlic or just plain sambal? is it chilli paste?
Keto Cooking Christian
You can use either. Yes, sambal is a type of chili paste.
Maggie Warno
Where do I get Sambal?
Keto Cooking Christian
Sambal is a spicy Asian chili paste you'll find at most major grocery stores where other Asian products are sold. You can also get it online by clicking the link in the recipe.
Lorraine Rice
If you like a spicy sauce with just a kick this is definitely worth trying and I will continue making it. I made it for my salmon cakes and will try with other foods as well.
Keto Cooking Christian
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. This sauce goes with so many different things but I love it on salmon cakes best too.
Liz
Is there anything you can substitute for the Sriracha?
Keto Cooking Christian
Not sure honestly, the Sriracha is a key ingredient in this sauce so I've never tried subbing it.

Sherry Helton
When I clicked on the link it said chili paste not garlic is that correct
Keto Cooking Christian
You can use either Sambal or Sambal garlic, either will work
Allison
I’m curious about this recipe and want to make sure I’m doing it right. The first half of the page the recipe reads sambal, garlic. But the actual recipe at the bottom doesn’t mention garlic. Do I add garlic, or not? Thanks
Keto Cooking Christian
You're not adding garlic, but rather Sambal garlic. Alternatively, you can use plan Sambal, but I recommend using their garlic version. Sorry for the confusion, I've corrected the recipe card to reflect this.
Jane
I did try this sauce, making it less spicy and it was so good. Do you think it would be good on asparagus?
Keto Cooking Christian
Honestly, I've never tried it so I can't say for sure. I love this sauce on so many things, but I imagine it would be great on some veggies. Definitely worth trying!

If you are sensitive to really spicy food - I usually use mild salsa- will the regular recipe being too hot ?
Keto Cooking Christian
It's not super spicy, but it does have a kick to it. I would say more comparable to a medium salsa. I would start by mixing in half of the Sambal and half of the Sriracha, taste it and see how you like it. If it's too hot, add more mayo. The sauce has a wonderful flavor, so it doesn't have to be super spicy to enjoy 🙂 I hope that helps!
