Sweet And Hot Garlic Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup unbleached cane sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon hot chili sauce (you can find this at any asian market; usually it's the korean brand with the bright green top. If y)

Preparation

In a saucepan, comine the sugar, water, vinegar, garlic and salt.
Bring to a boil over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.
Turn to medium-low and keep cooking until the sauce is a little syrupy (18-25 min).
Remove from heat and add the chili sauce--mix well; it will turn a nice amber-orange.
Let cool to room temperature, then keep refrigerate in an airtight jar for up to three weeks.
When using, heat a little bit until it thins to a slightly syrupy consistency.
