Ingredients

  • ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

Instructions

  • Add the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and cornstarch to a ½-pint to a 1-pint mason jar with a lid.
  • Shake well until the stir-fry sauce is completely combined. It will appear cloudy due to the cornstarch. Keep the sauce refrigerated until you are ready to use.
  • If you do not have a pint-size jar, you can whisk the ingredients together. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until you are ready to use the stir-fry sauce.

Notes

  • Consider making a double batch of this sauce. It stores well in the fridge and can save time on busy weeknights.
  • If the sauce has been sitting in the fridge, give it a good shake or stir before each use to ensure all the ingredients are well mixed.
