- The base is ready. You only need to thicken the sauce a bit and season it extra.

- Let it simmer for fifteen to twenty minutes on a low heat, just before boiling. Stirring occasionally.
- Turn the heat down. If you want to add almond paste, tahini or fish sauce do it now. Do not let it boil afterwards. Just mix well.
- Then let it cool down, also stirring occasionally. You can also add sesame oil now.
- Pour into a sealable bottle or jar. If necessary, sift for the star anise and other spices, but you can also just pour these into the jar and sift when using.
