MISO BAKED OYSTERS- A QUICK AND EASY WEST COAST APPETIZER

This week's recipe is Japanese inspired Miso Baked Oysters also known as Oysters Motoyaki. My version is a bright and unctuous riff on Oysters Rockefeller inspired by one of my favourite.

INGREDIENTS

- Oysters - Japanese Mayonnaise - Miso paste - Mirin - Hot Sauce - Lemon Juice - Fresh Spinach - Mozzarella cheese

If using oyster shells, help them stay upright and stable by placing them on a bed of rock salt or kosher salt.

Mix mayonnaise into miso paste, then add mirin, hot sauce and lemon juice and stir until well mixed. Divide spinach equally between shells or ramekins. Top with oysters.

Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon miso mayo sauce over each one and then sprinkle with cheese.

Slide under broiler and broil until bubbling and brown and oysters are cooked, approx 5-8 minutes depending on height of oven rack and temperature of your broiler.

Remove from oven. Note: broiled cheesy dishes get HOT and can burn so let these cool 5 minutes before eating.
