This is my basic stir-fry sauce. I use it with any number of combinations of meat and/or vegetables. I don't claim that it's authentic but my family enjoys it. It is made up of ingredients that are easy to find in any supermarket.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, finely minced
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
1 teaspoon gingerroot, freshly grated
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (optional)
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a pan on medium heat. Add onion and saute until translucent.
2. Add garlic, soy sauce, teriyaki, ginger, pepper, and pepper flakes. Simmer gently for about a minute.
3. Dissolve cornstarch into water completely and add to pan. Stir constantly until sauce bubbles and thickens slightly, less than 1 minute.
4. Finish sauce with lime juice. Toss with stir-fried meat and/or vegetables and serve.
