39 Reviews of Easy Stir Fry Sauce

From: Marlene H

On Mar 4, 2004

Made it last night for my very picky family, and they loved it.. I didn't have ginger in the cupboard, so I omitted it — but I think it needs that extra spice.. Will definitely be a favourite. Marlene H. ONtario, Canada

    I was craving Chinese food and this stirfry sauce was a perfect recipe to use. I used dark soy sauce (the only kind I buy after having a Chinese Exchange studnet who loved it), beef broth and rice vinegar. I threw together a simple stir fry using beef strips, assorted veggies, and some fresh chinese noodles. This was way better than take out, thanks!

    This was the yummiest stir fry sauce recipe ever! The only thing I added was about a tsp of chili pepper flakes. Everyone in our house loves it and it was definitely easy! Thank you.

    I made this sauce to serve with a beef stir fry, so I used beef broth for it. I also used rice vinegar. We both loved this great tasting sauce. I will definitely make this again.

    We really enjoyed this sauce. I used garlic powder instead of fresh and it worked just fine. This will be a real money saver too. Thanks for the recipe.

    Yum! I've never successfully stir-fried before — and was trying it with Tofu on top of being a novice!! This sauce was awesome. I didn't change or add a thing except increased the vegetable broth by 1/2 a cup! I had to cook the veggies in two batches, then the tofu last. I used red & yellow bell peppers and cabbage in batch one, then set that to keep warm in a pan with a bit of the sauce and some olive oil while I cooked the other veggies (zucchini, broccoli, frozen veg mix). I then added those veggies to the cabbage pan while I stir fried the cubes of tofu on its own. I'd marinated the tofu in this sauce for only 30 minutes, but it still turned out awesome. I used cider vinegar, soy sauce and 2 tablespoons of corn starch. I didn't have vegetable broth, so dissolved a vegetable bouillion (sp?) cube in 2 cups boiling water, and used all of that. I ended up using the entire batch for a huge stir fry, served it with rice — and my picky husband (who'd never had tofu before this) loved it. Thank You!!

    This was very good, but I thought it was a bit too sweet. I would definitely lessen the brown sugar. I added crushed red pepper and black pepper, and served it with chicken, broccoli, and linguine.

    This has become a regular recipe with my family. I discovered it about a year ago. I decreased the liquid and used bouillon instead of broth and increased the garlic. You can add a little red pepper if you like a little zing.

    I went on an asian inspired cooking rampage the other night, and this was one of the recipes I chose. I cook for a lot of people every night and some can't tolerate a lot of salt or spice, so this recipe was perfect! It was very well received as it had a nice, well-balanced but fairly neutral flavor that lends itself to easy modification. It didn't overwhelm the flavor of the veggies and chicken, but for those of us who like a bit of heat, it was easy to add. I simply divided it up between two jars and added a bit of crushed red pepper and some Fire Oil to one of them. It cooked up very nicely and made a rich sauce that coated my stir fry beautifully. Thank you so much for sharing! This will be my standard stir fry sauce from here on out.

    This stir fry sauce was really good - better than those sauce mixes I have used in the past. I had all of the ingredients on hand and it was quick. Thanks!
