asian sweet-sour sauce

                                    Asian sweet-sour sauce

Ever since I found that recipe, I need to make this. It's sooooooo good and addictive. Also, good to prepare for guests. It's also very, very good on fried fish. I liked the Mangrove Snapper my husband brought home from fishing (we are living on the central eastcoast of Florida). Just fry the fish (salted and peppered and dusted in Flour) and once done, just brush on the sweet and sour sauce. Yum


This is what you need:

- 1/2 cup low sodium Soy Sauce

- 1/2 cup white Vinegar

- 1/2 cup Honey

- 2 cloves of Garlic

- a 2 inch piece of fresh Ginger, sliced

- pack of Chicken wings

- Toasted Sesame seeds and scallions for garnish

This is how you do it:

Peel the Garlic and smash it with a knife a bit. Peel and slice the Ginger. Add all liquids in a sauce pan and add the solids. Let simmer for 30 min and remove the solids. Sauce should be nice and thickened. If not, make a slurry with Corn starch and water and add to the sauce until nice thickened. 

In a 475 degree oven, cook the chicken wings (with nothing on. No seasons needed) for about  35 min and until slightly browned. Remove from the oven and toss the wings one after another in the 
sweet-sour sauce. Garnish with Sesame Seeds and the Scallions. 

Enjoy and Guten Appetit
