Mango Habanero Hot Sauce with BBQ Wings

Recipe by Courtney Roulston

Ingredients

  • 1.2kg whole chicken wings

  • sea salt to taste

  • 2 fresh Coles mangoes

  • 2 tablespoons Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 small brown onion, diced

  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped

  • 2 habanero chilli pepper, chopped (orange or red)

  • 3 long red chillies, chopped

  • 3 large vine ripened tomatoes (or you can use a tin crushed tomatoes)

  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

  • 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar

  • Raco medium size pan

Method

  • Heat a BBQ plate to medium. Season the wings with sea salt and place onto the grill. Cook, turning occasionally for 30 minutes, or until the skin is golden, slightly charred and the meat is cooked through.

  • Peel the mangoes and chop the flesh into a rough dice.

  • Heat the frying pan over a medium heat. Add in the oil and onion and cook for 2-3 minutes to soften. Add in the garlic, habanero and long red chillies. Cook for 2 minutes for the chillies to soften. Add in the mango flesh and tomatoes and cook for a further 5 minutes, or until the mixture is softened and slightly reduced. Pour in the maple syrup and vinegar, then remove from the heat.

  • Place the hot sauce ingredients into the jug of a stick blender and blitz until smooth. Taste for balance and check for seasoning before pouring into a sterilised jar.

  • Serve the BBQ wings with the hot sauce on the side for dipping.
