Basic Chinese Sauces

No ratings yet
China

Known as a Chinese recipe, with similar versions prepared across other nations.

Ingredients 6 ingredients

  1. 4 teaspoons Cornstarch
  2. 1/2 cups Water
  3. 1 teaspoon Chili paste
  4. 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
  5. 4 teaspoons Soy sauce
  6. 1 teaspoon Oyster sauce

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.

Method

  1. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Stir-fry your meat first and set aside; then stir-fry your vegetables, return meat to wok or skillet with the sauce mixture. This recipe would be for using 1 lb of meat, but I like to double this recipe as we like a lot of sauce.
