Be sure to prepare your ingredients in advance. Dice your veggies, and pre measure all ingredients. You will be happy to have these ready because once you start, you won’t be able to stop stirring! • each, corn starch and ice-cold water (Literally! It wouldn’t hurt to actually leave a couple small chips of ice in there.) • each: aprox. 1 inch chunks of green pepper, white onion, and pineapple, (The smaller the pieces, the more intensely these ingredients will add their flavor to your sauce) • olive oil or the cooking oil of your choice • minced garlic (I like the jarred, minced, garlic, but fresh works well, too.) • pineapple juice (You can strain the juice from the cans of chunked pineapple but you may need a little extra to make 1 1/2 cups) • or up to 3/4 cup juice from a jar of Maraschino cherries (one small jar is usually enough. (Use the cherries to make some Ambrosia or something else, or you and your kids can munch on them!) • rice vinegar (You can use ALL white vinegar but I use mostly rice vinegar, it has a milder flavor. It’s up to you!) • white vinegar (to your taste) (depending on how “sour” you want it to be) • soy sauce (It’s a strong flavor & very salty. I like about 2 1/2 tablespoons but my son prefers it with 4, however, many recipes I have read leave it out entirely. Totally your choice! • white, granulated sugar, no substitutions • orange marmalade (I prefer this, I think the flavor combination is just perfect, but I saw a recipe that used grape jelly, and it would also be just fine without any. Use your judgement.) •
