Hot garlic sauce is, undeniably, an important part of Chinese cuisine. It is indeed quite versatile and lends itself to a wide variety of dishes. Here is one such recipe comprising sautéed vegetables, in a base of tomato puree thickened with corn flour. As the name suggests, hot garlic sauce is made using lots of garlic, ginger and green chillies.


This recipe too is full of bountiful vegetables – in fact, I have consciously planned most recipes using lots of veggies as these are very beneficial for diabetics and provide a holistic health boost. What is more, I have used only 2 tsp of oil, so you can set those overworked nerves to rest! You can relish this dish as it is or with cooked kodri or boiled rice noodles and perhaps once in a while with rice too.
