Tips & Warnings

• Use the sauce left in the pan as gravy for rice, noodles or diced potatoes. If it requires thickening (or stretching), add 1 cup water with 1 level tablespoon corn starch and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix these three ingredients well before adding them to the pan. Simmer the gravy for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
