tablespoon
reduced-sodium soy sauce

dry cooking sherry
optional
1
teaspoon
ginger

Instructions
Combine all the ingredients in a small mixing bowl and whisk together.

When your stir-fry is just about done, pour in this sauce and it will thicken up quickly, assuming the stir-fry pan or wok is on fairly high heat.
