Savory Garlic and Brown Sugar Stir-Fry Delight

Ingredients

- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger

Instructions

1. Prepare the Sauce:
In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, and ground ginger. Whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is well blended. Set aside.

2. Sauté the Garlic:
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

3. Incorporate the Sauce:
Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet with the garlic. Stir constantly as you bring the sauce to a boil. Allow it to simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

4. Combine and Serve:
Once the sauce has thickened, remove from heat. This savory sauce can be poured over your choice of stir-fried vegetables or proteins, such as chicken, beef, or tofu, to create a complete meal.

5. Final Touches:
Serve immediately. Garnish with additional red pepper flakes for extra heat, if desired.
