2 dozen oysters
1/4 lb butter
1 celery rib, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1 box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1/4 teaspoon anise seed (very imprortant--do not omit)

cayenne
black pepper
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Clean& drain oysters and set aside.

  • Remove from heat.
  • Grease or spray 8 ramekins.
  • Place 3 oysters in the bottom of ea ramekin.
  • Cover oysters with spinach mixture.
  • (***youcan do it in advance up to his point and refrigerate).
  • Bake@ 350 for 30 minutes.
  • Remove& top with cheese and crumbs.
  • Return to oven for 10 minutes.
  • **Ifyou don't own ramekins, bake in a shallow baking pan.
  • This is not a beautiful dish, so the attractive containers help.
  • I made this for years without them.
  • The ramekins make it easier to serve, too.
  • I usually do this as an appetizer, but it makes a main course for 4.
