My style :
One of my favorite herbs. In Brunei, its hard to find fresh leaf and most of this herbs imported from overseas and used in industries like hotels or restaurants. The easiest ways to get oregano is the dried one, you can find them sold in supermarket in bottle.
I usually use oregano in my noodles like, mee soup or laksa, just picked the leaf and put them in last minute before you serve the food. In a boiled laksa, the sweet oregano smell will brings your appetite, the taste not like a typical laksa... 'nyaman'.
I also used oregano in beef marination sometimes but I usually chop them and leave it in the fridge for at least 5 hours minimum, the combination of herbs with good quality oil will prove the marination, suggestion is corn oil or olive oil. Do not season your beef at this stage where it will hydrate the beef texture. Using dried Oregano as marination is the best method.
