History[edit | edit source]

Ingredients[edit | edit source]

The exact recipe for OK Sauce is a closely guarded secret, but it is known to contain tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, dates, cornflour, salt, and a blend of spices. The sauce is cooked until it thickens and then bottled.

Usage[edit | edit source]

OK Sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It can be served as a dipping sauce for chips or fried chicken, used as a marinade for barbecue dishes, or added to stir-fry recipes for extra flavor. In Hong Kong, it is often used in dishes such as baked pork chop rice and spaghetti Bolognese.

Availability[edit | edit source]

OK Sauce is available in supermarkets and online retailers in the UK and Hong Kong. It can also be found in specialty stores in other countries, particularly those that stock British or Asian food products.
