Efamy pork, beef and chicken chilli sauces on a wooden board with fresh chillies and garlic

It began with
one batch, in 2008.

Ghanaian chilli sauces and seasonings, made in Corby ever since. The same recipes, the same short ingredient lists, and no shortcuts we would not take at home.

Our story

Three dates that made the range what it is.

  1. 2008

    The first batch

    On 30 December we made our first chilli sauce in Kettering and sold it to friends and family. They came back for more, which was all the encouragement we needed.

  2. 2010

    Seasonings, by request

    Customers kept asking for the blend we cooked with, so we jarred it as the All Purpose Seasoning Mix. Coat & Cook followed shortly after.

  3. 2015

    Kelewele Seasoning

    In December we made our first Kelewele Seasoning — spices, negro pepper, chilli powder and crushed chilli peppers for spiced fried plantain.

Everything is still made to those recipes. We keep looking for ways to make them better, and none of them involve making them cheaper.

What goes in the jar

Our chilli sauces

Seven flavours made from real meat, poultry, beans and fish — and you can see it. Our sauces carry chunks rather than a smooth paste. Fresh ginger, garlic and onions are the main ingredients, and the oils are vegetable oil and extra virgin olive oil.

Spoon them over rice, chips, pasta or couscous, stir them through a salad, or take a jar to a barbecue and watch it disappear.

Our seasonings

Made mainly from natural ingredients including ginger and garlic powder, spices and chilli peppers.

An All Purpose blend for meat, fish and chicken, a Kelewele mix for spiced fried plantain, and Coat & Cook for a crisp coating.

No colours, additives or preservatives added.

On heat

Heat is a preference, not a test. The recipe underneath is the same every time, so the gentler jar never means less flavour.

  • Mild

    Warmth rather than burn. For children and anyone new to it.

  • Hot

    A proper, lingering heat for cooks who already use chilli.

  • Extra hot

    The full strength, for people who mean it.

The range

Two ways to cook with Efamy

Why choose Efamy?

  • Premium ingredients

    Fresh ginger, garlic and onions, with vegetable and extra virgin olive oil. Nothing artificial.

  • Meat and fish you can see

    Our sauces carry real chunks rather than a smooth paste, which is what makes them a meal and not a condiment.

  • Made in the UK

    Produced in Corby to the same recipes we started with in 2008, and shipped from here.

  • A strength for everyone

    Mild, hot and extra hot from the same recipe, so a table with different tastes shares the same meal.
