Ingredients
- 15 ml dry sherry or cooking wine
- 15 ml tomato sauce
- 15 ml soy sauce
- 15 ml vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon caster sugar
- 1/2 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon ginger root (chopped)
- 1/2 teaspoon green chilies (finely chopped, optional)
- 1 spring onion (optional)
Instructions
- Ensure that the ginger is fresh and peeled before finely chopping it. Similarly, finely chop the onion. The amount of onion can be adjusted to your taste; some people prefer no onion at all and opt for just the spring onion garnish to add a mild onion flavor to the dish.
- Finely chop the chilies and mix them with the sweet vinegar. Then, combine all the ingredients, except for the spring onion, in a bowl. Mix well. Chop the spring onion and sprinkle it over the dipping sauce before serving
- Since this dish is so simple, we recommend preparing it immediately before use to ensure the freshest taste. Enjoy with your favorite appetizers!
