Sweet and Sour Sauce


¼        C. white vinegar

¾        C. sugar

2        T. tomato paste

Few chunks of green pepper and white onions

1        C. chicken broth

1        small can pineapple chunks and pineapple juice from can

4        T. cornstarch

1/4     T. salt

Dissolve the cornstarch in 1/3 cup water.  Place all the ingredients together in a sauce pan, except peppers, onions and pineapple chunks.  Heat and stir until tomato paste is completely dissolved.  Add more tomato paste if a redder color is desired.

Keep stirring mixture while adding cornstarch until thickened and smooth.  Add peppers and onions and cook for about 1 minute.  Add pineapple chunks and serve over meatballs, wonton bows, egg rolls, chicken, etc.

Note: If sauce is too sour, add more sugar. If it is too sweet, add a little more vinegar.
