Working on a sauce to serve with tonkatsu (Japanese breaded fried pork), and this is what I came up with. It has tart and sweet notes that go perfectly with pork; especially pork that had been breaded and fried. Still working on the tonkatsu, but this is the sauce I will be using.

This recipe works with fried pork, but I think it would be great with chicken and/or beef.

Truth be told, there actually is a tonkatsu sauce; however, since I took liberties with this recipe, I decided to just call it Asian.

So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

How to Make Sauce Essentials: Asian-Style BBQ Sauce

Step-by-Step

PREP/PREPARE
Here are two recipes for you that are homemade:
This first recipe is the one I used for the spicy ketchup. This is not chili sauce, nor is it a plain ketchup, although either one would probably work.

A lot of folks like Worcestershire sauce; however, they do not like it when they find out it is made with anchovies. This recipe is anchovy free, and taste great.
