Nando’s Peri-Peri Medium 250g

Nando’s Peri-Peri Medium

Nando’s Peri-Peri Medium Sauce gives you that familiar mix of chilli, garlic and lemon with enough heat to wake up the meal without setting off alarms. The main player is African Bird’s Eye Chilli, mixed with garlic, lemon, onion, oil, vinegar and seasoning to make the sauce Nando’s is known for. Medium sits in a comfortable spot on the heat scale. There is a definite chilli kick, but you can still taste everything else on the plate. Pour it over grilled chicken, brush it onto steak before cooking, add a few drops to burgers or use it as a dipping sauce for chips. It also works with fish, pork, rice and vegetables when they need a little more life. Nando’s recommends using it for marinating, cooking, dipping or simply splashing over food at the table. That makes it an easy bottle to keep close to the stove or Braai because you do not have to decide whether it is a marinade, sauce or condiment. It can be all three. The 250g bottle gives you enough for several meals without taking over the fridge door.

Medium Peri-Peri is especially useful when you are cooking for people who like some heat but do not want every bite to turn into a challenge. Coat chicken pieces before grilling, stir a spoonful into rice, drizzle it over roasted vegetables or add some to a sandwich when mayonnaise alone seems a bit dull. The garlic and lemon keep the flavor bright, while the vinegar brings a little tang behind the chilli. It also makes a simple marinade when there is no time for a long list of ingredients. Add it to the meat, let it sit if you have time, then get it onto the grill. Nando’s lists chicken, meat, fish, rice and vegetables among the foods that pair well with the Medium sauce, which covers a pretty large part of dinner. Keep a bottle around for Braais, quick lunches or those nights when leftovers need help becoming something worth eating again. Medium brings enough chilli to be noticed, plenty of garlic and citrus flavor, and none of the drama that comes with reaching straight for the hottest bottle.
