Categories     Sauces

Time 15m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup ketchup
1 teaspoon regular soy sauce
1/3 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
1 cup white sugar (can reduce a 2-3 tablespoons for a less sweeter taste)
3/4 cup cold water (or can use unsweetened pineapple juice or half each, I prefer the pineapple juice)
3 tablespoons cornstarch (for a thinner sauce reduce to 2 tablespoons, if you want an very thick sauce use 4 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the first 5 ingredients until combined.
  • In a cup or bowl whisk the cold water with cornstarch or pineapple juice until smooth and combined, then whisk in ketchup mixture; bring to a boil stirring or whisking constantly over medium-high heat until bubbly and thickened (the sauce will continue to thicken more while simmering).
  • Cool slightly and use immediately or refrigerate.

I love the flavor of this sauce. It's not too sweet or too sour, and it has a nice tang to it.

This sauce is so easy to make and it tastes amazing. I've used it on chicken, pork, and shrimp, and it's always a hit.

I've tried many sweet and sour sauce recipes, but this one is by far the best. It's the perfect combination of sweet, sour, and tangy.

This sauce is a little too tangy for my taste. I think I'll add a bit of honey next time to balance it out.

I love that this recipe uses fresh ingredients. It makes the sauce taste so much better than the kind you buy in a bottle.

I'm not a huge fan of sweet and sour sauce, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so flavorful and versatile. I've used it on chicken, shrimp, and tofu, and it's always delicious.

This sauce is amazing! It's the perfect balance of sweet and sour. I used it on chicken and it was a hit with my family.

I followed the recipe exactly and found the sauce to be a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I will reduce the amount of sugar by half.
