1. Combine the soy sauce, 1 1/2 cups sugar, 3/4 cup molasses, the garlic, ginger, star anise, bay leaf, and coriander seeds in a medium-size, heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until the mixture is richly flavored and slightly syrupy, about 8 minutes. Stir the mixture as it cooks. Taste for seasoning, adding sugar or molasses as necessary the sauce should be quite sweet.
2. Strain the ketjap into a clean jar and let cool it will keep, tightly covered in the refrigerator, for several months.
