Ingredients:

1 cup fresh pineapple, finely chopped

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup white vinegar

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

2 garlic cloves, minced

Optional for heat (if desired):

1–2 teaspoons red pepper flakes or

1 small red chili, finely chopped

 

Instructions:

1. Combine ingredients:
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped pineapple, water, vinegar, honey, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. If using chili or red pepper flakes, add them now.

2. Simmer:
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pineapple is soft and the sauce slightly thickens.

3. Blend (optional):
For a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender and pulse until smooth. If you prefer it chunky, you can skip this step.

4. Cool and store:
Let the sauce cool completely. Pour into a jar or airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 1 week.
