From ...a garlicky sauce is a great way to add extra flavor to stir-fry dishes, particularly seafood dishes. The seasonings for garlic sauce are available in the international food section of many local supermarkets. Use the sauce in stir-fry dishes or any other Asian type dishes. Note: Instead of using 2 types soy sauce, I just use 2 tablespoons dark.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
2 teaspoons chinese rice wine or 2 teaspoons dry sherry
1/4-1/2 teaspoon chili sauce (sriracha to taste)
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon vegetables or 1 tablespoon peanut oil
3 -4 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
Directions:
1. Combine the rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauces, rice wine or sherry, chili sauce and sesame oil in a small bowl, stirring to combine. In a separate small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the water.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat in a saucepan. Add the garlic and cook, stirring until aromatic (about 30 seconds).
3. Quickly restir the sauce, add it into the saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring. (This will take about a minute).
4. Re-stir the cornstarch/water mixture and add it to the sauce, stirring to thicken. Refrigerate after use.
