This savory Asian garlic stir sauce is perfect for enhancing your favorite dishes with a burst of flavor.
Mix the rice vinegar, sugar, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, dry sherry, and chili sauce in a small bowl until well combined.
Ensure the sugar is fully dissolved for a smooth sauce.
In another small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth.
Use cold water to prevent lumps in the mixture.
Heat a saucepan over medium heat and add a small amount of oil. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Pour the sauce mixture into the saucepan and bring it to a gentle boil, stirring constantly.
Stirring prevents the sauce from sticking to the pan.
Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan and stir until the sauce thickens.
Cook for an additional minute to ensure the cornstarch is fully activated.
Remove from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before serving or storing.
Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
