Note

This sauce is best used fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

For a richer texture, you can warm the oil slightly before adding the garlic and ginger, but do not let it brown.

Adjust the salt and lemon juice to taste depending on the dish you are serving it with.
