Equipment
- Saucepan or small pot

- Measuring cups and spoons
- Knife and cutting board
Ingredients
- ½ cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp fish sauce or soy sauce
- ¼ cup palm sugar or brown sugar
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp sriracha or Thai chili paste
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp fresh ginger grated

- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh lemongrass chopped
- ½ cup onion chopped
- 1 tsp garlic and red chili paste
- ½ cup oyster sauce
- ¼ cup honey
Instructions
Prepare The Aromatics:
- Heat some sesame oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, grated ginger, garlic, red chili paste, and lemongrass. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything smells fragrant and the onion starts to soften.
Mix In The Sauces And Liquids:
- Add the ketchup, fish sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, and palm sugar. Stir well so the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture comes together.
Simmer And Thicken:
- Turn the heat to medium-low and let the sauce simmer gently. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavours meld.
Finish And Serve:
- Take the saucepan off the heat. Stir in fresh lime juice and chopped cilantro. Let the sauce cool a little before serving.
