It's packed with taste thanks to the scallions, garlic and parsley or coriander (whatever you desire). This sauce only calls for 7 ingredients and takes about 10 minutes to make!
This sauce is very popular in Asia and there are so many renditions of it! This version is one that my mother-in-law passed to me and it's so good that I had to share it!
I know there are many green onion sauce recipes online but this one is so good and really simple! You really can't mess it up!

For this recipe
You will need the following ingredients for my green onion oil sauce:
- 1-2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 stalks green onions finely chopped
- â…“ cup parsley or coriander finely chopped
- ¼ cup avocado oil
- 3 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp white or black pepper
How to make green onion sauce
- Place your garlic, green onions, parsley or coriander in glass container.
- In a small pot, pour avocado oil in and heat it until hot. Carefully pour the hot oil over your herbs. Then season with soy sauce, salt and pepper. Serve and enjoy!
What if I dislike Coriander or Parsley?
You can also make a more simplified version of it by removing the parsley or coriander if you're not a fan of those herbs. Just reduce the amount oil to ¼ cup.
This oil lasts for a good 5 days in a sealed container and you can even freeze it defrosting it for later!

For this recipe, you'll need scallions or spring onions, garlic, parsley/coriander, soy sauce, avocado oil, salt and white pepper! That's all and you have a wonderful oil that will elevate any plain asian dish!

Delicious recipe! have made it about a dozen times now, goes really good as a Raveolli topper! Instead of parsley I've been using cilantro or Thai basil, both work really well.
