Pineapple Stir Fry Sauce

What you need: 

1 cup crushed pineapple + juice
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon mined ginger (fresh)
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon 807]cornstarch

What you do: 

Mix together all ingredients except for water and cornstarch, and bring to a boil over medium heat.
Remove half the sauce and puree using a hand blender or regular blender.
Return to pot and add water and cornstarch mix, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens.
Go crazy with this one! Marinate your tofu in it before frying, add to your stir fry for the last few minutes of cooking, dump it onto some plain rice and have for a snack, marinate tofu in it and broil in the oven and use for sandwiches!
*This recipe could probably make about 4 Servings. I’m just a sauce-a-holic and need everything dripping in it!

SO HOW'D IT GO?

Yummy! Followed the recipe to the letter and it turned out great! Is probably best with some fruity veggies such as bellpepper and maybe onions. Omnomnom!

I thought the cumin was a strange flavor in this. Not used to it in chinese-ish stuff. It was good, but I'll leave out the cumin next time, and add garlic.

I just prepared this as a marinade for some tofu which I'll probably fry up tomorrow. I made a few adjustments:
fresh pineapple rather than canned
1 whole tsp crushed chilies
1/2 tsp black pepper
Braggs aminos rather than soy sauce
succanat instead of brown sugar
arrowroot instead of cornstarch
I also used cider vinegar since the recipe didn't specify what type.
This sauce is AMAZING and SO DELICIOUS. I know I altered the recipe a lot, but man, what a great base recipe! Thank you for this one, I will be definitely be making it again! ;)b ;)b ;)b

I thought the flavor was pretty good. However, it is spicy and my children couldn't eat it. :(

As a pineapple fan I thought this sauce would be great.  It wasn't bad but it seriously lacked something I was hoping for.  I tried adding a bit more tamari, a bit more ginger, some garlic....couldn't find the missing ingredient though!

we really enjoyed this one.  i scooped it on top of tofu, mushrooms, and green onions with rice and "cauliflower poppers" on the side.  my husband went back for seconds and devoured everything! i used crushed pineapple and didn't puree anything (i wanted to minimize dirty dishes), and the sauce was still really thick.

I was looking for something new to try, and I really needed to use the can of pineapple inhabiting my cupboard, so I tried this out. It has a very different taste, I ate it with tofu, red pepper, carrots, broccoli, and jasmine rice. I would make this again, and OmniMom liked it too, so that must be good.

I tried this sauce the other day . It was pretty good. I left out the cumin and also used ground ginger instead of fresh. I had it over brown rice and morningstar chik'n nuggets.  :)
