Prep:5min › Cook:5min › Ready in:10min
- Heat oil in a saucepan add the garlic and chilli powder and cook until garlic is browned.
- Add the rest of the ingredients to the pan excluding the cornflour. The sugar and salt should be added slowly - taste the sauce to check the balance of sweet and sour and add more or less sugar and salt accordingly.
- Simmer for 5 minutes. Then add the cornflour mixed with a little water to thicken the sauce.
- Chilli may be left out if you don't like your sauce with a bit of kick.
Tip
Best served in a dipping bowl. It's nice served with chicken in batter or tempura prawns. Alternatively can be served with tempura vegetables for the vegan option.
