Ginger Spring Onions Sauce
A delicious and authentic stir fries and mains recipe for Ginger Spring Onions Sauce, prepared with traditional seasonings and techniques.
Ingredients
- • 5.6 oz spring onions ((about 6 medium-sized or 8 small spring onions) (*Footnote 1))
- • 1.4 oz ginger (, minced (yield 3 tablespoons))
- • 3/4 teaspoon salt ((*Footnote 3))
- • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- • 2/3 cup vegetable oil (or other neutral oil (*Footnote 2))
Preparation Steps
Slice the spring onions thinly. If the spring onions are on the thicker side, halve the spring onions lengthwise, then slice thinly into half-moon shapes. Transfer into a medium heatproof bowl over a trivet or coaster.
Add the minced ginger, salt, and sugar into the bowl with spring onions. Stir to mix well.
Heat the oil in a small pot or frying pan that you can pour from easily, until hot, but not smoking hot. You can test it by inserting a wooden chopstick into the oil and see whether thin bubbles come up. If the bubbles are big and rapid, the oil is too hot. Immediately pour the hot oil over the ginger spring onions mixture. Stir to mix well. The sauce is ready to use now. Or you can transfer it into a sealed container once cooled. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
