Good dipping sauce. Mine turned out a little too acidic.. I added 2 drops of Stevia while simmering and that seemed to mellow out the OJ and Lime acid. Added lots of ground black pepper. Maybe less orange juice next time. Using fresh ginger is key. I also added the cilantro to the sauce right before serving. Overall, very good.

I have been dieting for about 2 months now and that couldn't have been any more perfect to satisfy my taste buds. I LOVED it! Easy to make, not heavy, tasteful, and I can honestly say I felt like I was eating out at a nice restaurant. I can see this recipe being used in so many different settings...wonderful!

The cornstarch made the sauce very thick and gummy - don't know what I would use to change it.
