Classic Stir Fry Sauce Recipe

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 105

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, garlic powder, ground ginger, and red pepper flakes.
  2. Add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, and water. Whisk vigorously until the sugar and cornstarch dissolve.
  3. Pour into a jar, seal tightly, and shake well. Store in the refrigerator and shake again right before using.

Notes

Shake the jar every time you reach for it—the cornstarch settles to the bottom. This recipe makes enough sauce for one stir fry that serves 4 people, and it doubles beautifully if you want to have a batch on hand.
