Tips

culture
蚵仔煎 is a classic Taiwanese night-market dish: oysters, egg, and leafy greens bound with sweet potato starch and pan-fried, then topped with a sweet-savory pink sauce. In Taiwanese Hokkien it is pronounced 'ô-á-tsian'; the Mandarin reading ézǐjiān is used on the mainland and in formal contexts.
