Instructions

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together tahini, tamari, lime juice (start with lesser amount), maple syrup, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chili garlic sauce. Add hot water 1 Tbsp (15 ml) at a time to thin it out into a pourable sauce (we added 1 Tbsp (15 ml) as recipe is written // amount needed will depend on thickness of tahini).
Taste and adjust if needed, adding more tahini for creaminess, tamari for saltiness, lime juice for acidity, maple syrup for sweetness, garlic or ginger for zing, or chili garlic sauce for heat.
Serve in a stir fry (with vegetables, grains, and/or noodles). Best when fresh. Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Whisk in additional water after refrigerating to thin. Not freezer friendly.

Notes

*Recipe as written makes ~3/4 cup (180 ml). *Nutrition information is a rough estimate.
