INGREDIENTS:

1 cup fresh pineapple, finely chopped

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced (we bought it pre-made)

2 garlic cloves, minced (we bought it pre-made)

2 teaspoons cornstarch

2 tablespoons water (additional for cornstarch)

1 teaspoon red chii flakes (adjust based on heat preference)

salt to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine pineapple, 1/2 cup water, vinegar, honey, soy sauce, ginger, ad garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes, or until the pineapple is tender.

In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water. Stir this slowly into simmering sauce.

Add the chili flakes and salt. Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

Remove from heat and let cool. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
