- In a jug or bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, tomato ketchup, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and gluten-free soy sauce or tamari.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornflour with the water to make a smooth paste.
- Pour the sauce into the pan and stir well.
- Add the cornflour mixture and stir until the sauce thickens and turns glossy.
