Prepare a bottle of long chilies that has been bottled for a year.

The ingredients inside the bottle include red chilies, red peppers, olive oil, brandy, bay leaves, salt, lemon (with skin), garlic, and white vinegar.

Boil the contents for about 20 minutes to soften the ingredients.

After boiling, explain that the sauce should not be fully blended to maintain a red color instead of orange.

Peel the ingredients to create a thick sauce without adding flour or any thickening agents.

The sauce should have a thick, soup-like consistency.

If desired, add more vinegar to adjust the consistency, but do not add any more ingredients.

Bottle the sauce back into the original container for storage.
