　　Shantou Oyster Omelette

Ingredients:

250g fresh oysters, 3 duck eggs, 20g chopped scallions, 75g wheat starch, 150g lard, 1g MSG, 5g fish sauce, 5g chili sauce.

Method:

(1) First, rinse the fresh oysters clean with water, mix them with a solution of wheat starch, and add finely chopped scallions. Then stir in the MSG and fish sauce, and set aside.

(2) Heat a flat pan over high heat until it is very hot, then add a little lard. Mix the oysters with the starch slurry to form a paste, stir it again with a spoon, and pour it into the pan. Crack and beat the duck eggs, then pour them over the mixture. Fry with lard, and season with chili sauce. Use an iron spatula to cut the omelette into pieces in the pan, then flip them over. Add more lard around the edges and continue frying until both sides are crispy and golden brown. Transfer to a plate and garnish with coriander leaves.

Features:

Delicious, crispy, and fragrant—crispy but not hard, crunchy but not soft.
