Crispy Prawn Chili — Most Delicious Hot Sauce Ever

My mom gave me a bottle of this Crispy Prawn Chilli she got from Malaysia.  It is so good.  I can’t say enough to express how good it is, but I’ll try anyway.

It’s not too hot.  There’s a perfect mix of saltiness, sweetness, and spiciness. It’s so good, and not so spicy, that I’ve been reduced to eating it straight from the bottle as a quick little snack.  So good.

It’s got great texture with these little crispy bits.  I don’t know what the crispy bits are.  They’re the size and shape of deep fried roe (the small kind), but have a crunchiness that reminds me of fried chicken batter.

I haven’t seen it at any local supermarkets, but I’ll keep looking out for it.  I did find this website that sells it for less than $5 a bottle.  Haven’t tried buying from them, but seeing how quickly I’m going through the bottle I have, I’m guessing I’ll be giving this vendor a try in a next couple of weeks.

So good. Go get a bottle today. (More pics after the jump.)

  • Sweet! Thanks for doing the research. I was able to red laser the pic on the screen. You are right, no data. But thats encouraging that it worked.

    I will check this stuff out. Thanks again.
  • Can you post a pic of the UPC or the numbers at the bottom so I can use Redlaser to search for this locally? :)
  • I updated the blog post with a picture of the barcode.

    Here's the RedLaser link for the bottles I have.

    No results. :(

    I bought some from asiansupermarket365.com, which was the first result when
    searching for the chili (http://www.google.com/search?q=crispy+prawn+chilli).
    Shipping gets significantly cheaper per unit when you buy more.

    The unknown crispy bits are probably crispy prawn?
  • Yes, probably. Delicious.
