Tip

ADJUSTMENTS:

If the sauce is too thick, add some water or pineapple juice.

If the sauce is too thin, it either has to boil a bit longer (it should bubble for 2 minutes (that´s the time the starch needs to thicken) or if it did, add a bit more starch (dissolve in cold water or juice before adding) and boild it again.

    This is great, just like the jars from the supermarket without the nasties! I only added 2 tbsp of corn flour and added a bit more sugar just cause we have a sweet tooth. Cooked on the stove and added pineapple pieces, vege, chicken and rice.

    Super easy & quick                  

    Thanks for sharing this recipe, I would normally use a store bought jar and mid-way through cooking meat & veg stir-fry realised I didn't have any. I followed your instructions and had a super tasty sauce in no time at all (I put in a little less corn flour). Will use this recipe again for sure.
