Author Notes
I love roasted vegetables in all forms, but I usually try to season them up front so I don't need to make a sauce. This recipe is an exception! I was thinking about making a sweet and sour sauce like honey mustard, but with maple syrup instead of honey. In my first attempt the maple taste proved to be a little too strong, so I punched up the sauce with a squirt of sriracha. Dashes of vinegar and fish sauce round out the flavors. The result is a sweetish sauce with a nice heat.
This recipe makes enough food to serve 6-8 as a side dish. Or, make some poached eggs to go on top and you've got brunch or dinner for 3-4!

Meanwhile, whisk together the ingredients for the sauce in a small saucepan. Taste and adjust until you're happy with the balance. Then, heat the pan over medium, stirring frequently, until bubbling and slightly thickened. Remove from the heat and set aside.
