This quick scallion pancake dipping sauce is savory, tangy, and just a little spicy. Made with soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin, and sesame oil, it adds bold flavor to crispy scallion pancakes in minutes.
Add the minced garlic, finely chopped scallion, water, light soy sauce, rice vinegar, oyster sauce, chili sauce or chili oil, sesame oil, and hoisin sauce to a small bowl.
Whisk until the sauce is smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust with a little extra chili oil for heat or a splash of water if you prefer a lighter dipping sauce, then serve immediately with warm scallion pancakes.
For a vegetarian version, replace the oyster sauce with vegetarian oyster sauce or add a little extra hoisin. The sauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days; stir well before serving because the ingredients may settle.
