CHINESE-STYLE BARBECUE SAUCE

ENOUGH SAUCE FOR 1 to 2 POUNDS OF MEAT

I call this "Chinese-Style" only because it uses some common Chinese ingredients. I have no idea as to its authenticity since I made it based on other recipes. Use as a sauce or marinade on roasted or grilled meat, poultry, seafood and even some vegetables.

INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup Hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon sesame oil

2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic

1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

1/4 cup dry sherry (optional for additional preparation)

In a small bowl, mix together all of the ingredients except the sherry. Spread over the meat or other food and, if desired, let marinate for about 30 minutes. Remove excess before raosting or grilling. If a drizzling sauce is desired for the final presentation, place in a small saucepan with the sherry and boil until reduced by about one-third. This recipe can easily be doubled.
