Vegetarian Galangal Chilli Sauce

This is my Grandma's special fried vegetarian chilli sauce that goes well with plain white rice.  It is spicy, taste a bit sweet and sourish.  I do not have her exact recipe but I tried making it.  Taste is slightly different as I add wild torch ginger flower to make it more aromatic. You can omit it, still has it's unique taste.
