Wellington's Sweet Chilli Sauce in the 500 ml squeeze bottle, sized for home kitchens and small cafes: nuggets, noodles, sandwiches and halloumi.
The 500 ml Wellington's is the compact squeeze bottle in the range, with the same cream cap, the neck label for Wellington Valley and a label of orange hills under a rising sun. The sauce shows through the plastic as a bright red-orange gel speckled with flakes of chilli and garlic. The name sits in a red banner, with a dish of sauce and fresh chillies below and a small round flash on the right. As general background, sweet chili sauce is used in Thai, Malaysian and Western cooking, and in Australia, Europe and the United States it is a common condiment at takeaways and supermarkets. The smaller bottle typically fits a home fridge door or a sandwich counter. Commonly, families squeeze it over chicken nuggets and fish fingers, stir it into egg noodles with spring onion, and spread it in toasted cheese and chicken sandwiches. Grilled halloumi slices get a drizzle just before serving, and it makes a quick dip for crudites mixed with yoghurt. It is the same sauce as the larger 700 ml bottle in a handier size. Keep it in the fridge once opened and give the bottle a shake before each use.
