Sambal Oelek again, almost same proportions, different method.

225g hot reds

I used a little more vinegar, to help the blender process along

I got some jars sterile with boiling water, added the pulp and topped off with that excess vinegar, etc, also quite hot.
I also stood the jars in a very hot water bath for a while.

End result: as desired, the plinky thing went down when the jars cooled.

This lot isn't completely sterile, perhaps, but I expect it will keep.

NB: I used twice the 225g of chillies to produce two jars of sambal.
Greedy fuckers cannot self-regulate.
Prove me wrong.
