Today is really busy. Had to rush off those testimonials and still prepare for my presentation tomorrow. Good thing my face looks okay now so I can rely on my good old cup as the opener instead of my face tomorrow.

Anyway, as I was going through my stuff, I found a printed recipe of this buried in my tray. This is something I’ve tried which is really good. I had picked it up from Streats Online last year but I kept misplacing the recipe. Now that I found it, I better put it down in my blog in case they take off the original article here. Anyway, I’ve tried it without the mushrooms and it still tasted good with the authentic fragrant of Or Luak.

Vegetarian Or Luak

What you need:
24 oyster mushrooms
4 tablespoons peanut oil
200ml water
4 tablespoons light soya
White pepper
4 tablespoons potato or tapioca flour
4 cloves garlic, minced
8 large eggs
4 tablespoons chilli sauce
4 stalks coriander leaves, chopped

What to do:
1. Lay mushrooms in a single layer on baking sheets. Grill under high heat till they become light brown. Put aside.
2. Heat peanut oil in a non-stick frying pan.
3. Put water, half the light soya sauce (2 tablespoons), pepper and flour in a bowl and mix well.
4. Lightly and quickly sauté minced garlic, then stir flour mixture and pour into the pan with the garlic. Cook for a minute over high heat.
5. Lightly beat eggs, chilli sauce and remaining light soya sauce together. Pour over flour and garlic mixture.
6. Reserving some for garnishing, sprinkle the rest of the mushrooms and coriander leaves over the eggs.
7. Turn omelette in portions with a frying slice to cook the other side. Serve hot with chilli and lime sauce on the side if preferred.
