Vegetarian Oyster Sauce

Sharing is caring!

We’re excited to share a homemade Thermomix recipe for Vegetarian Oyster Sauce that’s not only free of seafood but also avoids additional additives you may wish to avoid.

This homemade version of the classic oyster sauce is a perfect choice for those looking to add an umami flavour to their dishes, without compromising on dietary requirements.

So if you are wanting to avoid yeast extract or MSG, you might like to give this recipe a go.

What you will need:

  • dried shiitake mushrooms – you can find these at major supermarkets in the Asian section or even near the mushrooms in the fresh fruit and vegetables sometimes. You can also find them at your local Asian Supermarket.
  • coconut sugar – you can also use brown sugar, this gives the recipe a caramel sweetness. You could also use a low carb compliant sweetener to lower the carbs – start with half the amount and increase to taste.
  • garlic powder
  • onion powder
  • ginger powder
  • cornflour – this is purely for thickening if you would prefer to use 1/4 tsp xanthan gum sprinkled in
