Veggie & Vegan Oyster Sauce

Given that oyster sauce contains – well, yes, oysters – we thought we’d offer this easy little recipe. Use hot on stir-fries or cool as a dipping sauce.

Lee Kum Kee makes a vegan equivalent of oyster sauce called ‘Vegetarian Stir Fry Sauce’. It’s available from Oriental stores and some supermarkets.

Did you know that the Vegan Recipe Club is run by Viva!, and that we are a charity?

We create vital resources to help educate everyone – vegan veterans, novices and the v-curious alike – about vegan food, health and nutrition; as well as the plight of farmed animals and the devastating environmental impact of farming.

Through this work we have helped thousands of people discover veganism; but we want to reach millions more! We rely entirely on donations as we don’t get any government funding. If you already support us, thank you from the bottom of our hearts, you are really making a difference! Please share our details with your friends and loved ones too, as every donation enables us to keep fighting for change.
