Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the oyster sauce and sugar.
  • Heat the Chicken Stock and add to the sugar and oyster sauce so they dissolve.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mix to combine.
  • Can be refrigerated for later use or use immediately.

Notes

  • This recipe makes about 1 1/2 cups of sauce.
  • Serving size is an estimate on how much you are using for your recipe.
  • The sauce can be increased and saved for later use in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
  • Use for Kung Pao Shrimp or Chicken, Fried Rice, Chow Mein Noodles, Dan Dan Noodles or other stir fry dishes.
  • Sauce can be thickened with cornstarch when cooking to glaze the final dish.
  • I recommend using the ingredients as listed. If needing to switch out ingredients, the substitutions may vary the flavor of the sauce .
  • Example dark soy is sweeter than mushroom soy so sauce may be sweeter than the original recipe. You can omit an ingredient but the flavor will vary as well.
