Wow! Never been much of an oyster fan - all that slimy saltiness isn't really my cup o' cha, but I recently had hot oysters on a trip to the UK, and thwy blew my mind, so I recreated them with this recipe. Tried it out on some friends last night, two of which were devout oyster-phobes, and they're now definitely converted! Shucking the oysters can be a bit of a pain - that's why I get the old man to do it!

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

24 oysters
4 ounces butter
1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chopped garlic

Directions

1
Wash and shuck the oysters. Place the meat in the larger part of the shell, with about half the juices.
2
Arrange oysters on a tray, cover and chill for 30 minutes.
3
Combine the remaining ingredients in a small pan, heat and simmer for a couple of minutes until fully combined.
4
Chill until set.
5
Preheat over to 375°F.
6
Top each oyster with 1tsp of the butter mixture and bake for 10 mins, or until the edges of the oysters are beginning to curl.
7
Serve with lemon wedges, if desired.
