Monthly Meal Idea: Sweet and Sour Sauce
This is an easy to make sauce and yet it can change a very simple meal. You can use it poured over plain brown rice or mixed in at the end of a tofu and vegetable stir-fry or just used to brighten up some leftover vegetables.
Ingredients:Â
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot or kuzu
- 2 tablespoons water
- 8 fl ozs or 1 cup unsweetened organic apple juice
- 3 fl ozs or one third cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 fl ozs or one quarter cup of organic maple syrup or honey
- 1 tablespoon organic tamari or organic soya sauce
Directions:
Put the arrowroot and water together in a small bowl and mix to a smooth paste. Place the other ingredients in a small saucepan and heat over a medium flame. Gradually add the arrowroot paste to the apple juice mix until you get the consistency of sauce that you prefer. Serve hot.
