Thai Sweet Chili Sauce

Add all ingredients except for the starch to the blender and chop until the desired consistency of coarser or finer pieces is achieved. Bring to a boil in a pot over medium heat, then let simmer on low flame for about 3 minutes to thicken slightly. Now mix the starch with 2 tbsp water and stir it into the sauce, allowing it to simmer for one minute until the sauce thickens. After cooling, pour into a small bottle or jar. Store in the refrigerator.
