MOF Sambal

2026 Good Food Awards Finalist | Singaporean-Inspired Tomatillo Chili Sauce

Bright. Tangy. Spicy. Boldly umami.

MOF Sambal by Sibeiho is a vibrant Singaporean-inspired sambal chili sauce made in small batches in Portland, Oregon. Inspired by Sambal Hijau, a classic Southeast Asian green chili condiment, this sauce delivers bright acidity, layered heat, and deep savory flavor.

What makes MOF Sambal unique is its Pacific Northwest twist. Instead of the traditional green tomatoes used in Southeast Asia, we use fresh tomatillos, giving the sauce a lively tartness that perfectly balances the warmth of chili peppers and garlic.

The result is a bold vegan chili sauce that adds instant flavor to almost anything you cook.

We're honored that MOF Sambal has been named a 2026 Good Food Awards Finalist, recognizing exceptional flavor, quality ingredients, and responsible sourcing.

What Is Sambal?

Sambal is a staple Southeast Asian chili sauce known for its spicy, tangy, and umami-rich flavor. It’s widely used in Singaporean and Indonesian cooking to add depth and brightness to everyday meals.

Our MOF Sambal was inspired by Sambal Hijau, often served with Ayam Penyet or Ikan Penyet—deep-fried turmeric chicken or fish traditionally eaten with white jasmine rice. The dish originated in Indonesia and later made its way to Singapore, where it became a popular hawker and casual dining favorite.

Like traditional sambals, MOF Sambal is designed to cut through rich foods and wake up your palate.
