1. Mix the Ingredients:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and pineapple juice (if using).
2. Prepare the Cornstarch Slurry:
- In a separate small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 1/4 cup of water to create a slurry.
3. Cook the Sauce:
- In a small saucepan, heat the ketchup mixture over medium heat. Bring it to a simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
4. Thicken the Sauce:
- Once the mixture starts to simmer, add the cornstarch slurry to the sauce while stirring continuously.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
5. Serve:
- Remove the sauce from heat and let it cool slightly. Serve warm with your favorite sweet and sour dishes!
