sambal oelek
A sambal is a fresh or cooked relish. Sambal oelek is a spicy relish which is often used in conjunction with other sambal ingredients. It is made from ground chilies, salt and vinegar or tamarind. Tamarind is a very acidic fruit which gives sambals a particularly sharp taste. In a traditional oelek, the chilies are not seeded, adding more heat.
