Episode 9 Oyster Omelette
Oyster Omelette, a popular dish in many Asian cuisines, is a delectable fusion of fresh oysters, eggs, and a flavorful starch-based batter. This dish, known by various names in different regions, showcases a delightful contrast in textures. Fresh oysters are typically pan-fried with beaten eggs, creating a luscious and slightly crispy omelette. The unique aspect comes from the addition of a starch-based mixture, often made from sweet potato or tapioca flour, which forms a crispy, golden-brown crust around the oysters and eggs. The dish is further elevated with a savory and slightly tangy sauce, usually a blend of soy sauce, vinegar, and sometimes a touch of chili. The interplay of the briny oysters, the creamy eggs, and the crispy starch crust makes Oyster Omelette a flavorful and satisfying culinary experience, appreciated for its complexity and richness of taste.
