Add soy sauce and calamansi juice; cook, stirring, until reduced to a glaze consistency, 5 to 7 minutes. Taste and add more soy sauce or calamansi juice to reach desired tanginess and saltiness.
  2. 2 Serve hot with a dollop of avocado oil mayonnaise and a sprinkle of the green parts of green onions.
