Preparation

Step 1

Peel the carrot and put in a pot with heavily salted water, 2 garlic cloves, and onion. Boil until the carrot is very soft and can be broken apart with fork. Let cool completely, save the water.

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and add the peppers and the remaining 2 garlic cloves. Cook and stir for about 2-3 minutes.

Add all the ingredients (except the carrot water for now) to a food processor and blend for a minute to combine. Taste and either add seeds for more heat, or sugar to tone down.

Blend for another 5-7 minutes, adding more carrot water and/or vinegar to thin as needed. Keep blending until consistency is smooth and silky.
