Oyster cooked with butter and soy sauce is standard dish over here in Japan. However, I upgrade everyone's favorite recipe with garlic and green onion and it goes just fine! I like to serve it with buttered rice.

Steps

1

Dredge the well drained oysters in some starch and toss them very gently in a bowl till the liquid turns dark. Wash out the darkened liquid with cold water until the water becomes clear. Drain well. Place the oysters between paper towels and dry.
2

Coat the oysters lightly with some flour (not listed in the ingredients above). Heat some salad oil in a non-stick frying pan, add garlic, stir fry till they become golden over medium heat. Add oysters cook until golden. Turn over, add the Sake and cover. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes over low heat.
3

Add and melt the butter. Add soy sauce and green onion and stir to coat the oysters with sauce. Serve hot.
4

Washing oysters with starch to purify the taste is a method I learned from Chinese recipe while traditionalist Japanese chefs use graded Daikon radish juice.
