Vegetable Oil Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert vegetable oil from Tablespoon to the measurement that you need.

A tablespoon here is the 15 ml metric standard, about 16.67 to a metric cup, the same size as a UK tablespoon. A US tablespoon is smaller at 14.79 ml, so US cooks measuring with US spoons need slightly more. An Australian tablespoon is larger at 20 ml, so it holds about a third more.

Vegetable oil is a neutral-flavoured cooking oil pressed from plant sources such as rapeseed, sunflower, or soybean. It is widely used for frying, roasting, baking, and making salad dressings and marinades. One metric cup (250 ml) of vegetable oil weighs approximately 220 grams or 7.76 ounces.

Measuring oil by weight rather than volume gives more reliable results, particularly in baking where precision matters. This page lets you convert vegetable oil between grams, cups, millilitres, fluid ounces, and more for any recipe.

Only have oil but your recipe calls for butter? Use our butter to oil converter to work it out.

Butter to Oil Converter

Butter is a solid fat that adds flavour and, when creamed, traps air for lift that oil cannot give. To swap oil for butter, use about 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of butter per cup of oil, and our butter to oil converter handles the exact amount. See our Butter converter.

Ghee is a clarified butter fat, almost the same weight as vegetable oil (218 g vs 220 g per cup) but with a nutty flavour and a higher smoke point. Swap for melted ghee where a neutral fat is not essential. See our Ghee converter.
