Notes

How to elevate the flavor to the next level:

Heat 1 tbsp oil in a small saucepan until shimmering, add the minced garlic and stir for 20 – 30 seconds (watch to prevent it from burning).
Once it becomes fragrant, add the rest of the ingredients (except for the starch).
Sauté the fresh garlic will release the fragrance and flavor in the garlic! And you will also reduce the after taste and smell lingering in your mouth.
