4 servings
- ⅓ cup coconut aminos
- 3 tbsp honey
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey. - 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
Ingredient noteTomato paste only becomes a problem on a low FODMAP diet in larger amounts; this recipe uses only about 3/4 teaspoon per serving, so it is likely Low FODMAP. If you prefer to always avoid tomato paste, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tsp avocado oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Chef's tipSwap it in for an equal amount of the oil or butter the recipe cooks with - do not add it on top of the existing fat. - 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes
- ¼ tsp ground white pepper
- 1 tbsp arrowroot starch
- 2 tbsp cold water
Instructions
- 1
In a small bowl, whisk together the arrowroot starch and cold water until fully dissolved with no lumps. Set aside.

Heat the avocado oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute — watch closely, as the garlic can brown quickly.
