Kupang Masak Asam Pedas

 You can find fresh oysters from Aeon anytime... alive from the aquarium at reasonable price. However, I must have bought it during small moon as the flesh are not really full in the shells. I tried cooking them in Asam Pedas (hot chili with tamarind juice) and turned out good.

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Kat Miri kena beli yg frozen sebab tak pernah jumpa yg fresh.... tapi kat KL ni anytime boleh dapatkan yg fresh dgn harga yg berpatutan. Kali ni isi nya tak penuh pulak... agak nya bulan tak mengambang kot waktu beli tu.... hehe. Dah beberapa kali Along beli dan masak Asam Pedas tapi baru ni sempat nak masuk blog.
