Pineapple sweet and sour stir fry sauce is a classic Chinese dish that is enjoyed by people all over the world. It is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used to stir fry a variety of meats, vegetables, and fruits. The key to a great pineapple sweet and sour stir fry sauce is to find a balance between the sweet and sour flavors. The sweetness comes from the pineapple and sugar, while the sourness comes from the vinegar and lemon juice. The sauce should also have a little bit of heat, so adding a bit of chili pepper or cayenne pepper is a great way to add some extra flavor.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • Juice half of the pineapple, use the juice for the base of the sauce in step two and then the leftover chunks in step 4
  • Add water, vinegar, pineapple juice, ketchup and sugar into a pan.
  • Dissolve cornflour in 1 tablespoon water and add to pan.
  • Continuously stirring, bring all ingredients to the boil, then turn down to simmer and add pineapple, before stirring for another 2 minutes.

Tips for the Best Pineapple Sweet and Sour Stir-Fry Sauce:

  • Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. Canned pineapple can be used in a pinch, but fresh pineapple will give your sauce a brighter, more vibrant flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the garlic and ginger. These two ingredients add a ton of flavor to the sauce, so don't be afraid to use a lot.
  • Use a good quality soy sauce. A dark, rich soy sauce will give your sauce the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the sauce. Overcooking will cause the sauce to thicken and become too sweet.
  • Serve the sauce immediately. The sauce is best when served fresh and hot.

Conclusion:

Pineapple sweet and sour stir-fry sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for chicken, pork, fish, and shrimp. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for egg rolls, spring rolls, and other appetizers. If you're looking for a quick and easy way to add some flavor to your next stir-fry, give this pineapple sweet and sour sauce a try.
