    Creamy Oysters & Spinach Pasta

    Oysters that are available in Melbourne where I live are for eating raw, most of them are small, and VERY expensive. I don’t enjoy raw Oysters but I love cooked Oysters. If you have not-so-fresh Oysters and you need to cook them, this is a good recipe to try. If your Oysters are large ones, …

    Stir-fried Clams with Spicy Tomato Sauce

    This dish has been inspired by a European style dish of Clams that I saw on the internet. Clams were cooked with Garlic & Tomato. I instantly thought about adding Soy Sauce and Toban Djan (Chilli Bean Sauce) to that dish. Added Spring Onion instead of Herbs. This is an Asian style dish of Clams. …
