In separate bowl, whisk together eggs, sesame oil, pepper and remaining salt.

In large nonstick skillet, heat lard over medium-high heat; sauté bok choy just until beginning to wilt. Pour in starch mixture, tipping pan to distribute evenly.

Scatter oysters evenly over top. Reduce heat to medium; cook until liquid is transparent. Pour in egg mixture; cook, loosening edge and tilting pan to allow egg to flow underneath, until set. Transfer to serving plate. Top with sauce; sprinkle with green onion.
