Made with Korean chillies, garlic, onions, sesame seeds and spices, it offers a perfect balance between bold flavours, umami notes and a light sweetness. Versatile, it pairs equally well with Asian fondues (hot pot), Korean barbecues, grilled meats, vegetables or stir-fried noodles.
What is Suki Hot & Spicy Korean Chilli Sauce?
The suki sauce is an iconic condiment of Thai cuisine, traditionally served with Asian fondues (Thai sukiyaki or Thai hot pot). The Hot & Spicy Korean Chilli version by Zab Mike modernizes this recipe by incorporating real Korean chillies, garlic, onion and roasted chilli to achieve a more intense and aromatic sauce.
Its smooth texture is enhanced by sesame seeds that add a pleasant crunch. Spicier than a traditional suki sauce, it wins over lovers of spicy Asian cuisine while retaining a beautiful aromatic richness. This sauce is ideal as a dip, marinade or accompaniment sauce for many Thai- and Korean-inspired recipes.
Tasting notes
Suki Zab Mike Hot & Spicy Korean Chilli Sauce has a thick, glossy texture, dotted with sesame seeds and chilli pieces.
On the palate, the first notes are rich and savoury thanks to the garlic and onion, quickly followed by the aromatic punch of Korean chilli. The heat builds gradually without being aggressive, while the sesame seeds add a light toasted note that lingers on the finish. The overall result is balanced, generous and particularly addictive alongside rich or grilled dishes.
How to use the sauce?
Highly versatile, Suki Zab Mike Sauce can be used in many ways:
-
as a sauce for Asian fondues (hot pot or Thai suki);
-
as an accompaniment to Korean barbecues (Korean BBQ) and grilled meats;
-
