Servings: 6
Use this sauce to complement enchiladas, fish, chicken, or roasted pork. It turns a plain dish into something special!
Ingredients:
1/3 cup tamarind paste
1 1/2 cups beef broth, pre-heated
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
Directions:
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, bring the vinegar and brown sugar to a low boil. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and reduce by half to produce a syrup.
2. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the pre-heated beef broth, (I do this in the microwave until it's about 110 degrees F.) Then stir in the tamarind paste, garlic, and the ginger. Allow to reduce just a little and then strain the sauce into a serving bowl.
3. NOTE: Tamarind sauce can be obtained at an ethnic grocer (some sell online).
