Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Soak the oysters in clean water for ten minutes and add 1 tablespoon of salt. Stir gently a few times to clean them. This will naturally decompose the dirt on the oysters. Do not rub them with your hands. Then rinse them with high water

   

2. 2 Drain the washed oysters

   

3. 3 Chop coriander and chives and set aside

   

4. 4 Add 50g of potato starch to the drained oyster basin

   

5. 5 Break in 3 eggs

   

6. 6 Add chopped green onion and 1 tsp salt

   

7. 7 Gently mix evenly

   

8. 8 Pour 30mL oil into the hot pan

   

9. 9 After the oil is heated, pour the paste into the pot in one go

   

10. 10 Lift the handle of the pot, spread the batter evenly, fry one side over high heat and then flip the other side

    

11. 11 Fry until golden brown on both sides
