A bright, glossy, tangy homemade Sweet and Sour Dipping Sauce recipe made with simple pantry ingredients. Ready in 10 minutes, it keeps beautifully in the fridge, and tastes like your favourite takeaway dip – just healthier.
Ingredients
- 125 ml pineapple juice
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp tomato ketchup
- 2 tsp all-purpose soy sauce
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- ¼ tsp mustard powder
- 1½ tsp cornflour (cornstarch) combined with 2 tsp water
Instructions
- Place the pineapple juice, honey, ketchup, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar and mustard powder in a small saucepan with the heat off (this stops the ingredients from splattering).
- Turn the heat to medium and stir to combine.
- Bring to a gentle simmer, then add the cornflour and water mixture. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool – the sauce will thicken further as it stands (see note 1)
- Serve warm or cold.
Notes
Note 1 – Adjust consistency The sauce thickens as it cools. If it becomes too thick, warm it gently and add an extra teaspoon of water to loosen.
