Pear And Plum Sauce Marinade

Ingredients

• 1 large pear, peeled and cored
• 1 ripe plum, deseeded
• 1 onion
• 4 cloves garlic, crushed
• 2 dried chillies, optional
• 1/3 cup light soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 teaspoon white pepper

Method

Blend all ingredients into a smooth paste. Or… make into a stir-fry sauce!

1. In a saucepan, heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
2. Add in paste, bring to a gentle sizzle.
3. Turn down heat, let simmer for 10-15 minutes or until sauce is caramelised. Stir occasionally.
4. Let cool. Once cooled, store in an airtight jar.
5. Use 5 or 6 tablespoons for a quick meat and veggie stir-fry. Also ideal as a stir- through sauce for hot noodles. Sauce will keep longer when stored in a sterilised jar.
