Mix all the ingredients in a stainless steel pan.

Add sugar, salt, and pepper to the pan.

Whisk the mixture until combined.

Add onion oil, sesame oil, light soy sauce, thick soy sauce, oyster sauce, and water to the pan.

Gently mix the sauce until well combined and the sugar is slightly dissolved.

Switch on the heat to medium and bring the sauce to a boil, about 3 minutes.

Stir to mix evenly and dissolve the sugar faster.

Let the sauce come to a vigorous boil and continue boiling for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Once the sauce has reduced and is boiling vigorously, stir to mix well.

Switch off the heat and leave the sauce in the pan to cool completely.

After 2 hours, give it a good mix until the oils and sauce are well combined.

Pour the sauce into a clean and dry container using a funnel.
