Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 T soy sauce The quantities for soy sauce and the acid (calamansi) aren't set in stone- feel free to experiment and use more or less depending on how salty and tangy you want your food, light
  • 4 T calamansi lime juice I usually eyeball it and use 6 small calamansi for 4T of soy sauce. Substitute: key lime, Meyer lime, or other limes if you can't these 2, lemon and, as a last resort, white wine or rice vinegar, seeds strained out
  • 2-3 cloves garlic If you're short on time, just smash the garlic clove with the back of your knife and skip the mincing, peeled and minced
  • red chilli Substitute: Bird's eye chilli is traditional but it's spicier so I used something milder to accommodate younger children and the elderly. (Personally I prefer the smaller bird's eye chilli/ chilli padi though!, big, sliced
  • green chilli Added for colour, feel free to omit, big, sliced
  • onion sliced, or shallots, optional

Instructions

  1. Mix all the ingredients together.
  2. You can use it straight away or leave to infuse for 10 minutes first.
  3. You can immediately enjoy calamansi soy sauce with your dumplings etc or pour it over your meat/ fish to marinade.

Notes

  • Note: you can use more garlic and chilli if you want, but I find it makes the sauce too "full" (there is too much solids and too little liquid) which makes it hard to dip food into it!
  • This Filipino soy sauce is so quick and easy to make, people usually make it right at the table, although leaving the aromatics to infuse for a few minutes does give it more flavour.
  • Keep the calamansi seed and grow your own calamansi tree- you can use this fruit in so many South East Asian dishes!
