OMG!!! This sauce is absolutely WONDERFUL!! I used this for a chicken/veggie stir-fry. Only thing I changed was that I used 5 cloves of garlic (can't help it, I LOVE the stuff!), went light on the ginger, used regular vinegar instead of cider (personal preference),and added some ground black pepper. Since I had to stir-fry my chicken in oil, I used the sesame oil to cook my chicken while I was parboiling frozen stir-fry veggies. Threw them in with the chicken, added the sauce (minus the sesame oil), and it was soooooo yummy!!! This is definitely a must-try!!! I took the left-overs for lunch today, and it was even better because the sauce was nice and thick. Oh, I think I might have to make it again tomorrow! Healthy, simple, and a wonderful blend of flavors. I served over steamed rice. Thank you so, so, so much for this recipe!!! ~Manda

This is indeed wonderful sauce. I actually realized too late that I was out of sesame oil, so I omitted that. Next time I'll remember! It was still very good; I also added extra garlic and instead of cider vinegar I used red wine vinegar because that's what I had in the pantry. I used this sauce on shiitake mushroom and broccoli stir fry, and served it with Udon noodles! YUM!

I have to say this is Excellent! I followed your recipe exactly and it was perfect! I wouldn't change a thing about this recipe except to make more and more of it! Thanks KelseyE

We had some left-over pork loin, so used that with partially cooked fresh broccoli and carrots. I added onions, celery, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, etc., and with your great sauce, cooked up a great meal. Thanks, KelseyE! I didn't have sesame oil on hand, so used peanut oil. I will, however,use sesame next time.

I have found that you have to tinker with the amount of water added to the recipe. To much will dilute it to the point of no taste. I found this out after I added to previously frozen stir fry veggies that had water in the bottom of the pan.. SO now, I drain all water and I use half the amount of water called for and cook. Since there are ingredients that need to be heated before it comes together, heat it seperately if you need to find the right amount of water and to taste it beforehand. I still love this.

Great little sauce....easy to put together and fast...just the way I like it. I halved the recipe for a stir fry for two, but otherwise changed nothing. Thanks KelseyE! M.

We loved this sauce. The only thing I changed was I had no sherry wine so I used red wine, I always have that. And I mixed all the sauce together then took out about 1/2 cup to mix with the cornstarch, which I only used 1 1/2 tbsp. This was super. Thanks

This makes the perfect amount of sauce for my largish stir fry. Was kind of iffy on how to incorporate the cornstarch so I whisked it into my bowl of other ingredients and followed the cooking instructions otherwise. I used rice wine vinegar and lots of extra garlic. I will be using this often. Thanks for posting!!
