Ingredients
  

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons oyster sauce (or mushroom sauce for a vegan option)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

2 teaspoons honey or agave syrup

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1/2 cup vegetable broth

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Chopped green onions, for garnish

Instructions
 

In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster/mushroom sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and honey/agave syrup until well combined.

    In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with a few tablespoons of vegetable broth to create a slurry; this will prevent lumps.

      Gradually add the slurry into the soy sauce mixture while continuously whisking.

        Stir in the remaining vegetable broth, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes, if using.

          Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it begins to thicken (about 3-5 minutes).

            Once thickened to your desired consistency, remove from heat and let it cool before storing or using.

              Garnish with chopped green onions before serving with your favorite stir-fried vegetables or proteins.
