Had cravings for oyster omelette and so happened found this frozen oysters at NTUC for only like $3.95 (i think). Was actually thinking of visiting the hawkers food trail but dread the crowd and the queues so tried making the omelette at home.

If you ever get poked by prawns, crabs, fish etc, please immediately squeeze out your blood from the wound under a running tap. It helps to expel the bacteria from the blood stream. Then quickly put antiseptic cream and cover with plaster (we use 3M micropore tape).


Never ignore the wound.

Thanks for the tips. May I know what antiseptic cream to use?

I have a tube of dettol antiseptic cream handy for any cuts and scrapes. Think that will do.

My staff while preparing a crab dish for us, got pinched by a crab, tore thru her skin. We flushed the wound and applied antiseptic cream for her but for precaution, we insisted that she go to the doctors since she is also a diabetic. Thinking nothing of it she did not go. That night her finger swelled and she went to the doc immediately and got a jab.

I guess for most healthy individuals, our body will be able to fight off those bacterias. But for pple with pre-existing conditions, gotta be extra careful.

Yummy!!! Can give instructions on how to prepare this dish??? Not sure fried egg first or how to prepare the flour - would luv to know. Thanks

I used the following


5 1/2 tbsp sweet potato flour
150ml water
1/2 tbsp chinese rice wine
light soya sauce, salt, pepper to taste

Mix the above in a bowl

2-3 pieces of garlic, minced
2 eggs lightly beaten
parsley
1 pack frozen oysters from NTUC

Heat up enough oil to cover the bottom of you frying pan.
Fry the garlic till fragrant, turn up heat and pour in the flour mixture.
Fry till the sides of the flour appears crispy and pour in the eggs
Once the eggs set, break up the flour into pieces and fry to desired crispiness.
Add oysters, for a quick stir fry
Dish out, garnish with parsley

My family tend to prefer the flour more crispy then soggy so I fry it a little longer. But when I thought the flour looked crispy enough, I added the oysters, the liquid from the oysters made the flour a bit soggy. Think next time, I will dish out the flour and fry the oysters separately before adding them to the dish. And yah, this dish needs a fair bit of oil to get it right.
