Sizzling Hot Oysters Kilpatrick
July 21st 2010 03:45
The old saying that one should only eat oysters when there is an ‘r’ in the month used to apply in the northern hemisphere to avoid the spawning season. In Australia, sustainably farmed oysters are available all year round. Raw oysters are often eaten chilled in the summer, but cooked oysters taste great too! In the following simple recipe I demonstrate a perennial favourite, Oysters Kilpatrick.
Any species of oysters may be used. Making them at home is much cheaper than ordering them in a restaurant, and can be more romantic too, considering the legendary aphrodisiac properties of oysters.
Traditional Ingredients
1 dozen Oysters
112g (4oz) Bacon
60ml (2floz) Worcestershire Sauce
Optional
Replace 30ml of the Worcestershire sauce with 30ml of Barbeque sauce. This is often done in restaurants to hasten and enhance the browning of the bacon.
Method
Slice the bacon into slim batons.
Add the Worcestershire sauce and allow it to soak for a while.
Place the oysters on a metal tray.
Top the opened oysters with the bacon and pour any remaining sauce over them.
Grill under a hot grill for about eight minutes, until the bacon sizzles and browns.
Serve piping hot.
