Serves 4

Ingredients

Dressing

  • 1 teaspoon fresh wasabi paste or dried wasabi made into a paste
  • 2 limes

  5. Combine the salad garnish leaves and dress with a squeeze of limejuice.
  6. Place the rock salt onto a serving dish and arrange the shells on top.
  7. Spoon the dressing into each shell and then place a small amount of salad garnish onto each shell.
  8. In the preheated veg oil at 180 degrees fry the oysters for about 30 seconds just to cook and lightly colour the pastry.(To test the oil, fry a piece of bread. It should turn golden brown with in a minute).
  9. Drain on paper towel and place each oyster into its shell.
