Sambal Kicap is a traditional Indonesian and Malaysian sauce made primarily from sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) blended with spicy chilli peppers. It offers a delightful balance of sweetness, saltiness, and heat, with rich umami notes from the soy sauce. Some variations may include garlic, shallots, lime juice for a hint of tanginess.
