Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Sugar-free ketchup
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Chili paste (e.g., Sriracha)
- 1 tablespoon Stevia sweetener
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Cold water
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar-free ketchup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, chili paste, stevia sweetener, lime juice, and 1/4 cup of water. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Allow the sauce to cook for about 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of cold water to create a slurry. Ensure there are no lumps.
Slowly add the cornstarch slurry to the simmering sauce, stirring constantly to avoid any clumping.
Continue to cook the sauce for an additional 5 minutes, or until it has thickened to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before transferring it to a storage container.
Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, and use it to glaze meats, as a dipping sauce, or to add flavor to stir-fry dishes.
