60g Snow peas
1 White onion (sliced)
1 can Straw mushrooms (halved)

If you are an oyster lover this recipe will quickly become one of your
favourites. It is outragiously good. This dish is the best cooked oyster
dish I have ever had by a mile. Beef with oyster sauce is on every
takeaway menu and it is good. Oyster sauce does have an oyster taste.
Even though it actually contains no oyster at all. Like Truffle oil has
no truffle, or XO sauce has no brandy and BBQ sauce does not contain
BBQ's!!!
By adding canned oysters with the oil and then layering real oysters on
top I increase the depth and strength of oyster flavour by an
unbelievable amount. The raw oysters actually heat throught slightly
while the dish sits to the exact right temperature. Warming the oyster
increases the flavour. Cooking an oyster reduces the flavour. The oil
from the canned oysters is the perfect amount to be detectable at the
right level.
To eat the dish scoop in through the broccoli, under the beef and and
take a portion with an oyster on it. Eat (chew) the raw oyster first, then
eat the beef with sauce and brocolli. Be amazed, be very amazed.
