Aromatic oysters with spicy sauce

Ingredients

Butter - 2.1 oz
Wheat Flour - 4 tablespoons
Mild Chili Spice - 0 oz
Scallions - 6 pieces

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 428°F.

Step 2

Fill a baking tray halfway with coarse salt.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the flour and sauté until a smooth mixture forms, about 2 minutes. Add the oyster juice and cook until it thickens to a paste, about 2 minutes. Season with cayenne pepper, chopped green onions, chopped celery, tarragon, parsley, salt, and pepper. Reduce the heat and cook for about 1 hour. Transfer the sauce to a food processor, add the breadcrumbs, and blend into a smooth paste.

Step 4

Open the oysters over a bowl to collect their juice (you should get about 0.5 cup), and remove the top shells. Carefully detach the oyster from the shell with a knife and place it on a bed of salt. Let it rest for a bit.

Step 5

Transfer the paste to a piping bag with a decorative tip and cover the oysters with the paste. Place the baking tray in the oven and cook for about 5–7 minutes.
