I am so impressed with this sauce. We did a Thai themed dinner and this was the dipping sauce we used. It was the best that we had ever eaten. Used it for dipping wontons and spring rolls. Thanks J. Ko for the great recipe. Deb

great dipping sauce!! tasted very similar to the sweet & sour sauce that i'm used to. i did add a bit of cornstarch to thicken up a bit & left the shredded carrot out since it was the only ingredient i didnt have on hand.

I would give this a 12 if I could! It's the sauce you love in the restaurants, only better! We made it to eat with salad rolls and it was wonderful. Turns out it was also perfect for some romaine leaves we had last night and some cabbage as an asian slaw...I may just put some on my french fries too!
Truely J.Ko, it is wonderful, thank you so much for posting!
PS -DH put this together so it was made exactly as written!
