Best Oysters Mornay Recipes

BAKED OYSTERS MORNAY

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375F.
• Place the oyster tins (or shells) on a baking sheet and place one oyster in each tin.
• Mix together the parmesan and Panko bread crumbs. Set aside.
• In a sauce pan over medium heat add the butter. When the butter is melted stir in the flour. Let the flour and butter cook for a minute or two and then slowly whisk in the warm milk. Just as the sauce thickens add the 1/4 cup white wine. Then stir in the pinch of nutmeg and shredded cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Lightly salt and pepper the cooked spinach and place a little on each oyster. Then drizzle a tablespoon or two of Mornay sauce over the spinach and then top with the parmesan and Panko bread crumbs mixture.
• Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake until bubbly and the tops are golden brown. Often times the tops don't brown well enough for me, so I place the baking sheet under the broiler for a minute to get the color I like.
• Remove the oysters from the oven and give them a squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately with Tabasco.
