Like the previous commenter, I am wondering if there is a vegetarian substitute for fish sauce, and for oyster sauce. Aside from the vegetarian angle, I am very allergic to shell fish.

Hi tigerlille, in Thailand they will use soy sauce in place of fish sauce and mushroom sauce in place of oyster sauce. You should be able to find them at an Asian grocer, look for yellow labels as that is often used to mark vegetarian items in Thailand.
