Recipe Tips

  • If you are worried the soy sauce is too salty, then replace it with a low-sodium soy sauce.
  • You may need to skim excess fat from the top of the sauce. I find using a deep spoon such as a ladle is best.
  • The quantity of sugar can be increased if you like the sauce to be sweet. You can adjust it slightly just before you serve the dish.
