Easy Brown Sauce - Revised


Easy Brown Sauce recipe - Revised

Ingredients

1          cup beef broth (I like to use Better than Bullion brand)
¼         cup Mirin sauce
¼         cup dark (mushroom flavored) soy sauce
2          tablespoons sesame oil
1          tablespoon minced garlic
1          tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1          teaspoon garlic/chili paste like Sambal Oelek or perhaps Sriracha
1/4       teaspoon white pepper
2          tablespoon water
3          tablespoon corn starch


Combine first 8 ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil

In a separate container, combine the water and cornstarch and mix into a slurry.


Lower heat  and stir in slurry mixture to thicken.  I usually keep this on the back burner on warm/low while I cook the stir fry.

9/6/2017 - I've made a few modifications to the original recipe which I think improves the flavor. the cornstarch slurry has changed too to create a thicker sauce, but it sticks better to the stir-fry.


Note:  I absolutely LOVE garlic and ginger.  The amounts in this recipe are really just guidelines.
Note 2: Golden Mountain sauce adds a wonderful flavor and can be substituted for the dark mushroom soy sauce.  You can get it at your local Asian grocery store or Amazon.

You should get a better deal on this at your local Asian grocery store than Amazon.  This link has the price at $19.09 and at my local store, I can get the same bottle for $2.99
