Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan and heat it over medium heat. Add the onion to the pan and fry it for a couple of minutes.

   Place the garlic through a press into the frying pan with the vegetables, add a pinch of sugar and salt, pour in soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, pineapple juice and tomato sauce. For convenience, these sauce components can be mixed in advance in a separate container. Stir the contents of the pan and simmer everything over low heat for about 5 minutes.

   Add a teaspoon of starch and continue to simmer the sauce over the heat, stirring constantly with a spatula, until the sauce thickens. Turn off the heat.
