While planning to cook this dish which suppose to be spicy, then thought of why not prepare another sauce which is non-spicy for the kids?? Still have some balanced yuzu (honey citroen) jam in the pantry, so thought of making a yuzu sauce with it? Back to searching some related recipes on web and found several versions on making the yuzu sauce and I use that as a guideline and come up with my version :) Spicy or sweet version? Both I like! :)
