This is a family favourite. Especially with the grandchildren who call it Breakfast Sauce. I make a large amount because it needs to sit for 3 months to develop the flavours. It can be used straight away, but the taste will be a little harsh.
Don’t skip the anchovies. They add that fabulous umami flavour as does the fish sauce.
For low fodmap, swap the garlic and the onion powder out for a 2 teaspoons of asafoetida powder. It’s a dried resin, also known as hing . Asafoetida has a strong onion and garlic flavour and can be found in Asian supermarkets.
This recipe is gluten free if using gluten free soy sauce.
