Hi Julie

You seem to have a very limited Asian cook-book. Sauces I've
used in my own stir-fries include:
Hoi-Sin
Sweet & sour (my own version with or without soy- see my
chili crab recipe)
Satay (both the Chinese type and the Indonesian type)
and various concoctions of vinegar, ginger, garlic, herbs,
spices and curry variations.
There are many other commercial non-soy Asiahn sauces.
I do use soy at times, both separately or as an ingredient
with others, but not in all cases.
