Preparation

This is a dietary version of sweet and sour sauce without sugar. However, sugar is still contained in soy sauce and tomato paste, but in small quantities. If possible, use freshly squeezed pineapple juice, but from a jar or a packet it will also work.

Mix the juice, water, vinegar, soy and tomato sauces in a saucepan with a thick bottom or saucepan. Heat the mixture over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. If you want a thicker sauce, add the starch diluted with hot water.
