Ingredients:
1/2 lemon grass stalk, halved lengthwise
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed

1 tablespoon bottled sweet chili sauce

1 star anise
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons cornstarch

1. Pound lemon grass with a meat mallet to slightly flatten and break apart fibers.

3. Pour mixture through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a bowl, using the back of a spoon to press out juice. Discard solids. Return juice to pan.
