Calories: 15kcal
- ½ cup pineapple juice
- ½ cup low sodium soy sauce
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon shredded ginger
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Very finely dice or grate the garlic and ginger. Alternatively, use pureed ginger and garlic.
Add the ginger and garlic to a small pot along with olive oil. Sauté on medium heat for about a minute to allow the aromatics to soften.
Combine cold water and cornstarch in a small bowl, and stir to form a paste. Set this aside.
Add the remaining ingredients to the pot with the ginger and garlic. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, then add the cornstarch slurry. Stir while the sauce quickly thickens.
Leave the sauce to simmer for a further 2-3 minutes while stirring, then remove the sauce from the heat. Use it immediately, or allow it to cool down before you transfer it to a storage container.
- Store the sauce in a sealed container in a refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Use in a variety of dishes of your choice.
- To further reduce the amount of sodium in the sauce, you can substitute coconut aminos for soy sauce.
