There are many versions on how to make sweet sour sauce. I have made some using canned pineapple juice in the past which turned out well. This time around however, I had to use what was on hand. This is a strong sauce which would work better with beef in a slow stew. I liken the flavor to Panda Express fare without the garbage ingredients.
Ingredients
1/4 c concentrated pineapple-orange juice (I used frozen Dole)
1/4 c ketchup
2 Tbsp sugar (I used organic raw sugar but white should be OK)
1 Tbsp molasses
1 Tbsp amino acids (you can use soy sauce as a substitute)
1 Tbsp corn starch
1-2 c water
Method
Add all the ingredients except the corn starch in a small saucepan and bring to a low simmer. In a separate bowl, add 1/4 c water (the amount does not need to be exact) to the corn starch. Stir to make a slurry. Add the mixture to the saucepan and mix it into the sauce. Simmer until thickened.
Feel free to adjust the ingredients to suit your taste!
