Oh Chean

Oh Chean or Fried Oysters Omelette ~ the oysters are fried to perfection into a sort of omelette made out of a mixture of cornstarch, eggs etc. Delicious and nice to eat when this delicacy is dipped into the sweet and hot chilli sauce served together :) This Oh Chean is one of my favourites. I always frequent one of the hawker stalls in Chulia Street. The above serving costs me RM4. Although most people likes the Oh Chean sold in the junction of Carnarvon Street and Kimberley Street; I don't cos I found the one sold there is very very oily... :P

Please stop putting delicious pictures in your blog. We know Malaysia has good food.

We Malaysians living in Australia are not blessed with such food. Putting such pictures in your blog would only make you deserve a little spanking!!!!

The "Oh" look big! And the serving of the "Oh" looks generous! And for $4!

day-dreamer said...

*drooling* Oooh!! The oysters... look so big, fat and juicy!! Can hardly find oh chean in Ipoh. =( Anyway, I just had roti tisu last night. Yummy! :D

Anonymous,
This hawker stall serves big & juicy oyster.. And the money spent is really worthy :)

Darryl,
Aiyoh, U don't have to worry so much as long as u don't have any medical ailments or suffering from high cholesterol level :P And I'm sure u do exercise, right?

Btw, enjoy your 2 months stay back home in Malaysia.. and not forgetting to taste all the mouth watering & delicious Malaysian delicacies :)

Humble Warrior,
Yeah, it tastes perfect & excellent when dipped into the hot chilli sauce.

Sharl,
Yeap, this particular stalls are generous with their big & juicy Ohs. Most other stalls give small Ohs.

Day Dreamer,
Hehehe.. btw, your roti tisu looks nice ;) And the serving is so huge !!! I'm really amazed :D
