Serves: 1 jar sauce
Ingredients
  • 7 tablespoons (or ¼ cup plus 3 tablespoons) soy sauce
  • 5 tablespoons rice wine
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 2½ teaspoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce (an essential in Asian cooking)
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced or grated
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 teaspoons gochujang (spicy Korean red chili paste) OR 2-3 teaspoons chili garlic sauce
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
Instructions
  1. Begin by combining the corn starch in a small bowl with the rice wine. Mix well into a slurry.
  2. In a mason jar or other jar with a re-sealable lid, combine all other ingredients.
  3. Add the corn starch slurry to the jar and close the lid.
  4. Shake the jar vigorously until all ingredients are well mixed.
WHEN STIR FRYING, PREP ALL VEGGIES AND MEATS IN ADVANCE.
A good rule of thumb is ½ cup of protein for every 2 cups of veggies.
Here is a quick stir fry tutorial just in case!
  1. ADD SOME OIL TO HOT WOK.
  2. COOK PROTEIN FIRST, REMOVE FROM WOK.
  3. COOK VEGGIES NEXT ALONG WITH ADDITIONAL GARLIC OR GINGER IF DESIRED.
  4. ADD PROTEIN BACK IN AND TOSS TOGETHER. PUSH VEGGIES AND MEAT TO THE SIDES, LEAVING AN OPENING IN THE CENTER OF THE WOK.
  5. SHAKE THE STIR FRY SAUCE AND ADD A ¼ CUP OR SO ALONG WITH ¼ TO ½ CUP OF STOCK OR WATER, STIRRING AS IT THICKENS. TOSS UNTIL WELL COATED AND SERVE IMMEDIATELY.
  6. Top off with sesame seeds, cilantro, green onions or nuts if desired. Enjoy!
