I haven't tried the recipe, yet, but I found a few points that need to be corrected or explained. First, the author misspelled Srirocha throughout the recipe. Perhaps "autocorrect" was enabled, but I doubt it. To help you find your sauces, The local name for Thai sweet chili sauce is "Mae Ploy" and the local name for hot chili oil is "Sambal Oelek".

I made these chicken wings for our Super Bowl party and it was a big hit. I have been asked to make these again. I highly recommend this recipe.

I have learned a thing or two about Thai food. I wish I had discovered it 20 years ago. Made for Spring PAC 2012.
