Tart-Sweet Chile-Garlic Sauce

A standard hot sauce on tables in Burma, this condiment for every occasion is hot, tart vinegar, and a little sweet. If possible, make it at least a day before you first want to serve it, because when you make it the sauce will seem watery, but it thickens and the flavors blend after a day. I reach for this sauce whenever I am eating rice or noodles, and I drizzle it over fried eggs. It's also a great complement to grilled meat and deep-fried snacks. Once you have a stash of it in your refrigerator, you'll never want to bother with store-bought Sriracha or other commercial hot sauces again.
