Taiwanese oyster omelette



People seem to like Taiwanese Street Food a lot, street food is a big part of Taiwanese culture. 
This is one of themost famous street foods – Taiwanese oyster omelette 蚵仔煎. 
If you like oysters or seafood, this is a great choice for you, if you like omelettes too then you’ve hit the jackpot! 
This omelette isn’t exactly the same as one of the western style omelettes it doesn’t just rely on egg to make the ‘pancake’ 
– the flour and water mixture is about half of the material in the omelette itself. 
Add to this the vegetables and finish with the special ‘secret’ sauce.
