Oyster Shooters

I was trying to be creative and thought I'd use the beautiful home made passata (see home made passata blog) with some oysters. It turned out alright but next time I might add some redwine vinegar or lemon juice and maybe some vodka to give it a bit more zing....

Oyster Shooters

1 dozen oysters
3/4 cup chilled passata/tomato juice
1 tbsp Worcheister sauce
few basil leaves finely chopped
1/2 a tomato, seeds removed, finely diced
a wedge cucumber finely diced

1 tsp red wine vinegar/ lemon juice (optional) or
1 tbsp vodka (optional)

Mix the tomato juice, Worcheister sauce, basil and vinegar/lemon juice (plus vodka if using) in a small bowl. Spoon 2-3 tsp mixture into shot glasses. Tip an oyster into each shot glass and top with diced cucumber and tomato. Chill for 30mins.
