Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb (450 g) cocktail sausages or mini smoked sausages
  • 1 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic or garlic paste
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • Optional: ½ teaspoon red chili flakes for extra heat
  • Optional garnish: sesame seeds, chopped parsley, chopped scallions

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prepare the Sauce : In a large skillet or saucepan, add sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and vinegar. Stir well until the mixture is fully combined.
  • Step 2: Add the Sausages : Add the cocktail sausages to the skillet. Toss to ensure they are evenly coated with the sauce.
  • Step 3: Cook and Glaze : Turn heat to medium. Let the sausages simmer for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally. As the sauce reduces, it will become thicker and stickier. Continue cooking until the sausages are glossy, heated through, and fully coated.
  • Step 4: Final Touches : Garnish with sesame seeds, scallions, or parsley if desired. Keep warm until ready to serve.
