Pineapple sauce, exotic and sweet and sour

I tried one several days ago pineapple sauce to accompany grilled pork and I still remember how delicious the dish was. I thought, "I have to post this on Recetín».
It is a sweet and sour sauce with a honeyed texture but not heavy at all, since pineapple is very digestive. It goes well with meat and white fish, with cheese and with pate. It gives me the feeling that it can also go well with an oriental pasta or with Cuban rice.

Preparation

We start by sautéing the onion in a little oil, then we add the chopped pineapple reserving a slice. Add salt, cornstarch, vinegar and sugar and cook for half an hour until the pineapple is tender. Now we pass the sauce through the Chinese or through the blender and strain it. We add the optional ingredients if we want.

We can lighten the sauce with a little of the juice of the pineapple itself. We cut the pineapple slice very finely into small cubes and add them to the sauce. We put it back on the fire for a few minutes and that's it.
