Heather's Stir-Fry Sauce

My SIL is a newlywed, and she's turning into quite a good cook — we have even started sharing recipes. This is HER stir fry sauce, and I love its basic goodness. You can add ingredients (I'll add a few spoonfuls of black bean sauce sometimes, for example) or change them around (I often use brown sugar instead of white, and sometimes I use rice wine vinegar instead of the white). I keep losing the piece of paper I have this scribbled on, so it's time to bring it to Zaar!

Great sauce for a beginning cook like myself! It turned out great, and added a nice (but not too strong or overpowering) taste to the stirfry. I used rice wine vinegar instead of regular vinegar and honey instead of sugar. Thanks so much for the recipe!

    What a great base, I added ginger, garlic, red pepper flakes & a couple spoonfuls of black bean sauce as you suggested. Served it with sliced steak, bell peppers & onions. It really made a lot of sauce, next time I will add more veggies. Thanks so much for the great recipe!

    Add me to the 5-star list. I can see how this sauce is like a blank artists palate, just waiting to be dressed up with your favourite seasonings. This was so easy to make and came together perfectly. I was a bit worried because it was very watery before I added it to the frying pan but as soon as it started to heat up it thickened into a lovely sauce. I recommend taking the pan off the heat just before you think it has thickened enough, because it will continue to cook and thicken from the residual heat in the pan.
