Default I need a sauce receipe

I want to make a stir fry with tofu and veggies, but I think it needs some kind of sauce to cook in. I want something low fat and low calorie, and Asian
any suggestions?

When I do stir-fries (sp?), I improvise. Vegetable broth, soy sauce, ginger (fresh or ground), garlic (fresh or powdered), a teeny bit of sesame oil or sesame seeds, and then whisk it all together with enough cornstarch to make the color look like gravy. When you cook it, it gets nice and thick thanks to the cornstarch, and coats everything nicely. Measurements aren't really necessary, just make enough to coat your stir-fry. I love adding in crushed red pepper, but I have a high tolerance for spicy food. Scallions are a nice topper, too.

I do it similarly, Gaia. Also good things to add are rice vinegar, squeezed orange, chopped cilantro.

Oh wow, I will definitely try that next time I make a stir-fry.
