Oysters with chilli, ginger and rice wine vinegar

“A decent oyster doesn’t need much else to really make it sing – try this beautifully simple combo”

Oysters with chilli, ginger

“Oysters are funny old things. Now they’re considered a decadent aphrodisiac, when only 100 years ago they were the pigeons of the sea and would be chucked into pies as peasant food. Aphrodisiac? I’m not sure, but I do seem to have acquired a taste for them over the last 3 years.”  Jamie Oliver

INGREDIENTS

  • ½ thumb-sized piece peeled ginger
  • 6 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 1 red chilli
  • a little fresh coriander
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • oysters

Serves: 2 

METHOD

Prep: 10min  ›  Cook: 0min  ›  Ready in: 10min 

  1. Freshly shuck (open) the oysters with a small knife or oyster-shucker, using a tea towel to hold them, eat them the day that you buy them and serve them on some ice cubes that you’ve bashed up in a tea towel.
  2. Finely grate ½ a thumb-sized piece of peeled ginger.
  3. Mix ginger with 6 tablespoons of rice wine vinegar, 1 finely chopped and deseeded red chilli and a little finely sliced fresh coriander.
  4. Stir in a teaspoon of sugar until dissolved.
  5. Serve in a dish with the oysters.
