Mixed Seafood in Oyster Sauce

If you are a seafood lover then you should make this Mixed Seafood in Oyster Sauce, it’s very tasty specially when clams are used, the seafood alone packs a lot of flavour adding oyster sauce to the formula makes it stand out even more.

I guess I will eat any seafood that is served in front of me (except for sea urchin), I love everything about them the taste, the texture, the aroma and the variety. Combine them all together then my jaw would easily drop and my salivary glands would produce its secretion non-stop. It does not matter how its cooked as I think with seafood it’s hard to get it wrong as long as you don’t over season it and use non fresh ones, that is why dishes like Seafood Paella, Bouillabaisse , Zarzuela, Pancit Malabon, Seafood Fried Rice or this post it will always be a champion for me. If you are a seafood lover then you should make something like this, it’s very tasty specially when clams are used, the seafood alone packs a lot of flavour adding oyster sauce to the formula makes it stand out even more.

    [laughing] I was going to say I would cook the seafood in dry white wine instead of water, but I see the dish does have Chinese cooking wine added at the end, so I better copy the recipe exactly 🙂 ! Could not live without oyster sauce!!!

  4. This could easily become a favourite of mine.

    I am so jealous of all of the wonderful seafood that you have access too! There is no way I would be able to find, much less buy so luscious looking seafood living in the high dessert of the SW U.S. Your dish really makes me miss living near an ocean. It looks delicious!

  9. Gosh, what a great looking dish! Love everything you’ve managed to cram into it! Great recipe – thanks.

  10. Dear Raymund,

    I love all kinds of seafood, including sea urchin and thankfully we have lots here in Sydney. That is a quick, easy and tasty recipe too!

  11. Love the use of oyster sauce in stir-fry’s! Yum!

  12. buttoni says:

    That looks GORGEOUS, Raymund! I think I’ll try this low-carb style. I can almost taste it through my computer screen! 🙂

  13. I’m totally with you on your love of seafood (except I especially love sea urchin !)

  14. Cornucopia of seafood goodness!

  15. Seafood and oyster sauce is a great match! I love all kinds of seafood melody in this dish. Pinned. 🙂

    Adaptable! Just the boost of umami flavor my porridge needed. I sautéed the seafood medley to add to pumpkin porridge/soup, so I didn’t follow the recipe exactly— no cayenne, white wine instead of Chinese cooking wine, and the ratios of ingredients were a little fudged. I sautéed & added the seafood, then made & added the sauce.
