Rinse the fresh oysters thoroughly under cold water and drain well. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 6 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Crack the eggs into another bowl and beat them lightly. Add soy sauce, fish sauce, and white pepper, whisking until combined.
Slice the green onions into small pieces, about 1/4 inch, and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, pour the cornstarch slurry into the skillet, spreading it evenly to form a thin layer.
Allow the slurry to cook until it turns translucent and slightly crispy, about 2 minutes.
Pour the beaten eggs over the cornstarch layer, ensuring even coverage.
Sprinkle the drained oysters evenly over the egg mixture, followed by the sliced green onions.
Carefully flip one side of the omelette over the other side to form a semi-circle, using a spatula.
Continue cooking until the eggs are fully set and the oysters are just cooked through, about 2 minutes more.
Gently slide the omelette onto a serving plate.
Drizzle the chili sauce over the omelette before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro for an added burst of flavor.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious oyster omelette!
