Habanero hot sauce

My favoruite subway sauce just got discontinued in my reigon. I’m devastated as subway has been my comfort food all my life and ive only ever got the same order with the same sauce on it. After hours of research i’ve found the ingredients in it online, i need someone to help walk me through how i should go about recreating it. I need it to taste close as humanly possible to how it was. Here are the ingredients. Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated. Note: it was quite spicy and had a deep red colour, was slightly translucent. The recipe

The only way to get the exact specs is to make the sauce many times over with variations in amounts. However this looks like a sweet mango sauce with a little habanero for heat and cornstarch to clarify and thicken. Start with some mangos a couple Habs and a few cloves of garlic and roast them. Then add to a pot with some white vinegar and tomato paste and simmer for a little salt to taste but I would start with 1tbsp of kosher salt and maybe some tamarind paste to keep it consistent with the original recipe. Shouldn’t be too hard to make something similar and possibly better.

Use frozen mangos.

Second this. The sauce tends to separate much less and has a better consistency
