Tio Zé Piri Piri Sauce recipe has been in Carlos Ramadas family since, well…since his uncle Tio Zé (Uncle José) first made it many, many generations ago. Carlos was born in Mozambique and from a young child loved helping his mother cook traditional Mozambican food – food that is influenced by the spices and herbs used in Portuguese cooking, as well as a mix of Oriental and Arab flavours. He learned how to make Tio Zé Piri Piri Sauce at an early age and has been making it ever since. Now, everyone can enjoy this lovingly produced home-made secret.

The fusion of Indian spices and Arabic cooking has developed over time into a unique and flavoursome cuisine, full-bodied and aromatic with subtle after burn and lingering citrus flavours – think Afro-Mediterranean with Eastern influence.

You will find all these magical flavours in Tio Zé Piri Piri Sauce & Oil. Not too hot and not too mild with a gentle but firm bite in the after burn, we make Tio Zé products to exacting specifications from natural ingredients with NO additives or preservatives.
