Oyster Overdose

Yesterday the only thing we didn't like about the oysters was the sauce they used- too sweet. So the 'play play' cook bought 4 tumpok of fresh oysters home and guess what we had for dinner?



We couldn't find any loose sheet of zinc roof around the house so we made do with the cast iron griddle.

Dinner is served just the way we like it --drowning in garlic sauce.

The garlic sauce:

2 tbsp. chopped garlic

2 tbsp. olive oil

1 tbsp. oyster sauce

a dash of vinegar or lime juice

Mix all ingredients together. When the oyster shells open (they will open when cooked, throw out those that don't) heap a teaspoonful of the sauce on to the flesh and cook for another minute or so - don't overcooked.

Love, Jo
