Variations on this basic teriyaki sauce (below) can be infused with different ingredients. Just add any, or as many, of the following as you want to the hot teriyaki sauce:

2 garlic cloves, peeled and lightly bruised
1 large red chilli, cut in half lengthways
Zest of 2 clementines or satsumas
2cm piece of root ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

Ingredients

150ml soy sauce
150ml mirin
150ml sake
75g caster or granulated sugar

Method

Place all the ingredients in a pan and mix well to make sure that the sugar has completely dissolved. Bring to the boil then simmer uncovered until reduced by a quarter and lightly syrupy, about 10–15 minutes.
Let it cool down then transfer to a sterilised, airtight jar and refrigerate. This will keep for up to 4 weeks in the fridge.
