Mexican Hot Sauce

Pungent and tongue tingling, the Mexican Hot Sauce is a valuable addition to several Mexican dishes, and can be enjoyed as a dip with your favourite chips too. The fieriness of red chillies when combined with the deep flavour of onions, the tanginess of tomatoes and the lingering aroma of oregano results in a delightful experience for the taste buds.
