I’m a sauce girl. Whether that’s ketchup for my fries, a dip for my chips, barbecue sauce on my burger or gravy on my biscuits. I LOVE sauce! This recipe makes enough to serve at a party as an dip for egg rolls or freeze half and mix some in with any protein. I used it on my shrimp and it was delicious! Also….if you like a smoother sauce for dipping you can pour the sauce into a blender. You still get all that delicious flavor from the vegetables with a smoother texture.

Pour sauce into a zip top bag. Make sure all the air has been removed from the bag. Lay the bag flat in the freezer. Once the contents of the bag are frozen store upright in the freezer like a book. This saves so much room verses a container.

Here’s a picture of the chutney I used. This an optional ingredient. Your recipe will still be amazing if you can’t find it.
