How to Make Oriental Stir Fry Sauce

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (or vegetarian alternative), 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1 clove minced garlic.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. This creates a slurry.
  3. Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the soy sauce mixture until fully incorporated and smooth.
  4. Set aside the sauce. Give it a quick whisk just before adding to the stir-fry to prevent settling.
  5. Add your favorite stir-fry vegetables and protein (chicken, beef, tofu, shrimp, etc.) to a wok or large skillet and cook until almost tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Pour the sauce over the stir-fry and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats everything evenly (about 1-2 minutes).
  7. Serve immediately over rice or noodles.
