4 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons palm sugar, chopped
sesame oil
2 -3 cm knobs fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

Directions:
1. Heat a wok and add about a centimetre of water to cover the bottom.
2. Add the mussels and pipis and cover with a tight-fitting lid.

6. Check the sauce for saltiness, adding more oyster sauce or, if too salty, a little water.
7. Toss the mussels and pipis back in the wok and add the coriander and a sprinkle of pepper.
8. Serve in individual bowls with rice or fine egg noodles.
