Tools You’ll Need
- Pan: You can even use a wok, but pans are more user-friendly in my opinion.
- Spatula: to saute and stir.
Ingredients in This Sugar Free Stir Fry Sauce Recipe
Soy Sauce: Use the light version for low sodium content in the vinaigrette.
Vegetable Broth: Broth is the unsung hero of this dish which adds complexity to its flavor profile. If it is not available, you can use water as well. Use the shelling of veggies like onion, cabbage, and carrot, soak them in water, and cook them for 30 minutes till the water turns dark brown.
Garlic: It gives a vibrant and robust flavor.
Ginger: For a bit of spiciness and a zing!
Olive Oil: It is rich in antioxidants and makes the sauce smooth and bright.
Cornstarch: To thicken up the vinaigrette to the desired consistency.
Stevia: It is a sugar-free alternative.
Salt & Pepper
How to Make Sugar Free Stir Fry Sauce
Cook the ingredients:
In a pan, heat olive oil, and add minced ginger and garlic. Cook them on low heat for 30 seconds.
Add vegetable broth, and give it a whirl.
Make a corn slurry by mixing some leftover broth with cornstarch, and add it to the mix.
Rigorously saute the broth after adding the corn slurry on high heat to avoid the formation of lumps.
Add stevia, and black pepper powder, and mix them properly.
Add the seasonings with salt and stevia, and let the sauce cool down at room temperature.
Your sugar free stir fry sauce is ready to be served.
Tips & Variations
Cool down before storing: Do not transfer the sauce to the mason jar when it’s hot. It will lose its flavor and may also break the container.
Use water instead of broth: If you’re in a hurry and don’t have the time to make broth or have any left in the fridge, simply swap it with water.
Gluten-free and keto versions: Use tamari in place of soy sauce and tapioca flour instead of cornstarch for gluten-free and keto alternatives respectively.
Serving Options
Dipping sauce: The sauce pairs well with crips and roasted veggies.
Meat and proteins: Use it for marination.
How to Store
In the fridge: If you have any leftovers, you can store the sauce in a mason jar and then place it in the fridge, and it can last for up to a week.
In the freezer: To make this sauce last long, you can freeze it for an easy 6 months.
Reheating: Thaw the dressing overnight in the refrigerator, and then warm it up in a pan or skillet. Add hot water if the sauce is too thick.
