Categories     Appetizer     Sauce

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 tablespoon potato starch (or cornstarch)
7 ounces of water
3 1/2 ounces ketchup (or 2 to 3 tablespoons tomato paste)
3 1/2 ounces rice vinegar
3 1/2 ounces rock sugar (You can also use superfine sugar or demerara sugar, but rock sugar is preferable for taste)
Salt (to taste)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Mix the potato starch with 1 tablespoon of water (or a little more, as needed) to make a slurry.
  • Add all of the ingredients to a saucepan and mix evenly before you start cooking.
  • You must continuously stir the sauce to prevent the sauce from getting lumpy.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil and turn the heat to the lowest temperature and simmer until the sauce texture has turned thick and sticky. Then it's ready.
  • You can stir fry some pork or chicken with vegetables and pour the sauce in.
  • If you have any extra sauce, you can keep it in a dry and clean container after it is cooled down and store it in the fridge. Usually, this sauce should last 7 to 10 days in the fridge.
