Easy Asian Stir Fry Sauce

Stir-fried dishes are most popular in Asian cuisines. Making a stir-fried dish requires having a good stir fry sauce. Now most grocery stores sell already-made stir fry sauce with very famous brand names, such as Panda, Yan Can Cook, or other famous chefs. I love stir-fried dishes because they are easy to put together for a quick dinner with very few ingredients. I will share this easy recipe for making stir fry sauce at home, and most of the ingredients are already in your kitchen.

Ingredients:

 1/2 cup water 

2 tbs cornstarch

1 tbs mushroom seasoning or chicken powder

1/3 cup soy sauce

2 tbs fish sauce

1/4 cup honey

2 tbs sesame oil

1/4 cup oyster sauce

2 tbs rice vinegar

1 tbs chilli flakes

2 tbs shaoxing cooking wine

Directions:

Combine all the ingredients in a jar with lid and shake well. 

You also can put all the ingredients in a bowl and use a whisk to whisk until all is dissolved.

Place the jar sauce in the refrigerator. It will last for months.

Tips: omit the fish sauce and add 1 tsp salt for vegans. Also use mushroom sauce instead of oyster sauce.

Use brown or granulated sugar instead of honey.

Add minced garlic and minced fresh ginger for each stir-fried dish (about 1 tsp each).
