Easy Sweet and Sour Sauce with Pepper and Pineapple.

Step 1

Peel the onion and garlic and chop.

Step 2

Cut the peppers into strips, discard the seeds and membranes.

Step 3

Pour the pineapple juice from the can into a jug. Mix in the white wine vinegar, soy sauce and brown sugar to the juice. Stir to dissolve the sugar.

Step 4

If using pineapple rings cut into bite sized chunks.

Step 5

Put the cornstarch in a small bowl and add a spoon of the pineapple liquid. Stir well and set to one side.

Step 6

Fry the onions, garlic and peppers in a frying pan in a little oil. When they’ve started to soften, add the pineapple juice mixture.

Step 7

Then add the cornstarch paste and cook some more stirring all the time. The sauce should quickly thicken to that characteristic takeout gloopiness.

Step 8

Add the pineapple chunks and chilli sauce and gently simmer until warmed through.
