Ingredients

2 tbsp oil

1.5 tbsp hoisin sauce

1 tbsp + 1 tsp red tomato paste

1 tbsp + 1/2 tsp crushed red chili flakes

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp chili powder

1 tsp sugar

1 tsp rice vinegar

1 tsp minced garlic

1 tsp minced ginger

************************************

Suggested mix ins:

Soy sauce

White vinegar

Chinese mustard

Sesame chili oil

Chopped peanuts

Sliced scallions

Minced ginger

Minced onion

Directions

In a small bowl, combine tomato paste, chili flakes, and chili powder, adding a couple drops of water if necessary to create a smooth paste. Set aside.

Heat oil over medium high heat. Add ginger and garlic and cook 1-2 minutes. Add sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce and mix well until sugar has dissolved.

Add chili-tomato paste to skillet and incorporate into hot oil. Cook about five minutes and transfer to a bowl. Mix in hoisin sauce and divide among six small dipping bowls immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

****************

Guests COULD potentially use this starter on it's own for dipping, but it may or may not last them as long as they want it...and it's going to be a little oily. Plus, it may be too spicy for some, or not hot enough for others. Provide a variety of ingredients for guests to add to their starter. Soy sauce and vinegar will tame the chilis for those who prefer a milder sauce, while sesame chili oil and chinese mustard will enhance the spicy flavors for those who like it hot.
