Lucullus Sambal Oelek, 725g

Sometimes you just want heat without complication, and that’s exactly what Lucullus Sambal Oelek delivers. Made from crushed chillies with a simple, clean flavour, it brings a direct, punchy heat that’s easy to work into all sorts of dishes.

Unlike more complex chilli sauces, sambal oelek keeps things stripped back. There’s no sweetness or heavy seasoning - just the bright, slightly sharp and slightly salty flavour of fresh chillies and a steady warmth that builds without overpowering everything else.

It’s incredibly versatile. Stir it into noodles, soups, or fried rice, add it to marinades, or simply spoon a little alongside dishes that need a bit of heat. It’s the kind of jar that quietly earns its place in the fridge.
