How to Prepare Red Onion Sauce [Vegan]

In a bowl, combine the water and arrowroot powder. Whisk until it’s smooth.
Add in the ketchup, vinegar, mustard, brown sugar, and hot sauce.
Mix in the cinnamon, chile powder, ½ tsp. of salt and the pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth. Taste for seasoning adjustments.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
Add the onions to the skillet. Season the onions with the remaining ½ tsp. of salt.
Add the garlic and cook until the onions are softened but not browned, about 8 minutes.
Add the sauce to the pan and toss so that the onions are coated.
Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens and the onions are tender, about 25 minutes.
Taste for seasoning again and add more water if the sauce is too thick.
Remove from the heat and set aside until ready to serve.
